Choose the option that correctly completes the sentence: 'By the time the foreign medical delegation arrives tomorrow afternoon, the health ministry _____ the vaccination distribution strategy.'
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. will have finalized
- Step 1: Recognize time frame: 'By the time... arrives tomorrow' sets a future deadline. Step 2. Actions completed before a specific future moment require the future perfect tense: 'will have + past participle'. Answer: will have finalized. Why not the others: 'will finalize' is simple future; 'has finalized' is present perfect; 'had finalized' is past perfect.
