Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 3 i.e. to be wash.

  • In this sentence, the verb "wash" should be in its base form, not "to be wash."
  • "He is going to wash the dishes" – This is the straightforward future intention using "to wash." It indicates that he will perform the action of washing the dishes. The infinitive "to wash" is the correct form for describing the action.

  • "He is going to be washing the dishes" – This indicates that the action of washing the dishes will be ongoing at a specific future time.
