Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2. i.e. If the box breaks.

  • 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.”
  • Thus, "Breaks" is the correct verb to use here.
  • The correct sentence will be: If the box breaks the glass bottle, it will shatter.
