Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. complete.
Context: The sentence talks about the speaker being unable to finish or accomplish the assignment within the given time.
Meaning of the words:
-
Completing – continuous form, does not fit after 'be able to,' incorrect.
-
Completed – past tense, grammatically incorrect in this structure.
-
Completes – third person singular present, does not fit with 'I will,' incorrect.
-
Complete – base form of the verb, correct usage after 'be able to.'
Correct word: Complete, because after 'be able to,' the base verb form is required.
Final Sentence: I will not be able to complete my assignment in time.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
