Which verb tense is most appropriate to complete this sentence: 'By next week, I _____ the project'?

  • A. I will be finishing
  • B. I will have finished
  • C. I am finishing
  • D. I would finish
Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is option B, 'I will have finished'. This choice correctly expresses a future event (finishing the project) that will be completed before another future point in time (next week). The future perfect tense 'will have finished' is used to show an action that will be completed before a specified future time. Choice A, 'I will be finishing', is incorrect as it indicates an ongoing action that will still be in progress by next week, which is not the intended meaning. Choice C, 'I am finishing', is incorrect as it indicates a present action that is ongoing, not a future event. Choice D, 'I would finish', is incorrect as 'would' is used for hypothetical situations or polite requests, which is not suitable in this context of a future project completion.
