B Correct answer
Explanation

The Present Perfect Tense is formed using 'has/have + past participle (3rd form of the verb).' This structure connects past actions to the present, indicating completed actions with relevance to now. Simple Present uses base form, Present Perfect Continuous uses 'has/have + been + verb-ing,' and Present Perfect does exist, so 'None of these' is incorrect.

Explanation

To change 'He does not open the gate' (Simple Present) to Present Perfect, use 'has/have + past participle.' The correct transformation is 'He has not opened the gate.'
