Объяснение:

Since or for определяется не глаголом в предложении, а указанием на время, которое следует за предлогом. Если оно обозначает точку на шкале времени (last winter, July), то используется since. Если же за предлогом следует описание отрезка времени (six months, a long time), употребляется for.
