Question

choose the best translation of the following sentence.
marcos will close the door.
○ marcos cerrará la puerta.
○ marcos cerrarás la puerta.
○ marcos cerraré la puerta.
○ marcos cerrán la puerta.

Explanation:

To translate "Marcos will close the door" into Spanish, we need to use the correct future - tense conjugation of the verb "cerrar" (to close) for the third - person singular subject "Marcos". The future - tense conjugation of "cerrar" for "él/ella/usted" (he/she/you - formal) is "cerrará".

• For the option "Marcos cerrarás la puerta", "cerrarás" is the second - person singular (tú) conjugation of "cerrar" in the future tense, which is not suitable for "Marcos" (a third - person subject).
• For the option "Marcos cerraré la puerta", "cerraré" is the first - person singular (yo) conjugation of "cerrar" in the future tense, so it does not match the subject "Marcos".
• For the option "Marcos cerrán la puerta", "cerrán" is the third - person plural (ellos/ellas/ustedes) conjugation of "cerrar" in the future tense, and it is incorrect for the singular subject "Marcos".

Only "Marcos cerrará la puerta" has the correct conjugation for the third - person singular subject "Marcos" in the future tense.

Answer:

A. Marcos cerrará la puerta.
