Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. If we send a mail today.

  • The sentence is a first conditional sentence.
  • The first conditional is used to talk about real and possible situations in the future.

  • The structure is: If + [present simple], .....… simple future tense.....

  • For example, “If it rains, I will stay at home.”

  • The sentence will be: If we send a mail today, we shall get a reply in two days.
