If you miss the train, you _ be late.
Correct answer: C. Will
- A. Can
- B. May
- C. Will
- D. Must
Explanation
The correct answer is 'will'. In this sentence, the use of 'will' indicates a future certainty that if the train is missed, the person will be late. The other options, 'can', 'may', and 'must', do not accurately convey the intended meaning of a definite future consequence in this context.
