Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank in the following sentence: Aman has been spending a lot of money on buying expensive, branded clothes. If he continues with his shopping spree, he ____ all his money by the end of the month. |
will be spending will have spent shall spend will spend |
will have spent |
The correct answer is Option (2) → will have spent The sentence requires the Future Perfect Tense (will have spent) because it describes an action (spending all his money) that will be completed at a specific point in the future (by the end of the month). Option 1 – will be spending: This is future continuous tense and shows an action in progress in the future, not one that will be completed. Option 3 – shall spend: This shows a simple future action but does not express completion before a specific time. Option 4 – will spend: This also shows simple future and does not show that the money will be completely used up by the end of the month. |
