Объяснение:

1) Present Perfect Continuous, потому что мы подчеркиваем длительность дождя: он начался в прошлом и идет до сих пор. Также есть маркер этого времени - "all day"

2) То же самое (акцент на длительность) + маркер времени - "for two hours".

3) this year - маркер Present Perfect.

4) Предложение написано в настоящем времени (It is - present simple). По правилу согласования англ.времен, нам нужно использовать Present Perfect.

5) Личный опыт передается при помощи Present Perfect. Акцент на длительности здесь не нужен.

6) the other day - своего рода маркер Past Simple. Здесь описываются события в прошлом - это словно рассказ о поездке.

7) have lost - потому что есть результат - Чарли теперь грустный. have been looking - потому что есть маркер Present Perfect Continuous - "for two hours".
