Question

31
if i am elected class president, i ______ a major goal.
which verb phrase correctly completes the sentence?
a had achieved
b have achieved
c will have achieved
d did achieve

Explanation:

The sentence is a conditional statement. The "if" - clause is in the present simple ("am elected"), which is used to talk about a possible future situation. For the main clause, we use the future perfect tense ("will have + past participle") to talk about an action that will be completed before a certain time in the future.

• Option A "had achieved" is past perfect, which is used to talk about an action completed before a past time, so it's incorrect.
• Option B "have achieved" is present perfect, which is used to talk about actions related to the present, not suitable for this conditional about the future.
• Option D "did achieve" is simple past, which is used to talk about past actions, not future - related.
• Option C "will have achieved" is in the future perfect tense, which fits the context of the conditional sentence about a future goal being achieved.

Answer:

C. will have achieved
