Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - Hi Harish. We haven’t met in a long time. How is it going?
'Hi Harish. We haven't met in a long time. How is it going?' is correct: 'We haven't met' uses the past participle with the present perfect, and 'How is it going?' is the right present tense. The other versions use 'meet' instead of 'met', 'How was it going', or 'Long time no meet'.
