Select the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.

Mr. Shanna may be late but I am sure Mr. Kapoor _______ be.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. won’t.

  1. There is a conjunction "but" in the given statement that shows contradiction.
  2. To show contradiction we need to keep one part of the statement assertive and the other negative.
  3. As the first part is in the assertive form we need to keep another part in the negative form.
  4. We need to choose the option that shows general possibility.
  5. The chosen option is in negative form and shows general possibility so it will be correct.

The correct sentence will be-

Mr. Shanna may be late but I am sure Mr. Kapoor won't be.
