From the above passage: Choose the best word for blank (16).
EnglishFill in the Blanks
- Acan
- Bwill
- Cmust
Explanation
The context refers to something happening 'after us', which clearly points to the future. The modal 'will' expresses a future happening, whereas 'can' expresses ability and 'must' expresses obligation — neither fits the futurity of the context. 'Will' is therefore the only appropriate choice. Option (B) is correct.
