Tenses — Future tenses & Sequence of Tenses MCQ — 14 Practice Questions with Answers

Explanation

Future continuous is used for an action that will be in progress at a specific future moment. The cues are "At 10 a.m. tomorrow" and "the interviews will run from 9 a.m. to noon." Therefore, only "will be interviewing" shows that the committee will be engaged in the interviews at that time.

Explanation

In ordinary indirect speech, a future form is backshifted after a past reporting verb: "will" becomes "would." The cue is the past reporting verb "said." Therefore, only Statement 2 is correct because it uses "would attend"; Statement 1 incorrectly keeps "will attend."

Explanation

In a real future condition, the if-clause normally uses the simple present and the main clause uses a future form. The cues are "If it rains tomorrow" and "will be postponed." Therefore, A is true, R is true, and R correctly explains why "rains" is used.

Explanation

The future perfect tense is used for an action that will be finished before a specified future point. The cue is 'By the time the supervisor arrives', which sets a future deadline. Since the register must be complete before that arrival, only 'will have completed' expresses the required meaning.

Explanation

The future continuous tense is formed with 'will be + present participle' and is used for an action in progress at a specified future moment. The cue is 'At 10 a.m. tomorrow', which marks that future moment. The verb phrase 'will be attending' matches the form and meaning exactly, so both A and R are true and R correctly explains A. Therefore, option D is correct.
