He _ us a message once he reaches the hotel.
Correct answer: A. Will send
- A. Will send
- B. Sends
- C. Send
- D. Has sent
Explanation
The correct answer is 'will send' because it is in the future simple tense, which is appropriate for indicating that an action will happen in the future after another action ('reaches the hotel') takes place. Option B ('sends') uses the present simple tense, which does not indicate a future action. Option C ('send') is the base form of the verb and requires 'will' to indicate a future tense. Option D ('has sent') uses the present perfect tense, which is used for actions that occurred at an unspecified time before now, not future actions.
