Question

Choose the appropriate option from the given sentence:

You and a friend come home very late. Other people in the house are asleep. Your friend is noisy.
YOU: Shhh! Don't make so much noise. ___________ everybody up. (you/wake)

• A. You'd wake
• B. You'll wake
• C. You're waking
• D. You woke

Answer 1

The correct option is B You'll wake

The simple future is a verb tense that’s used to talk about things that haven’t happened yet, here, waking everybody up. We use the simple future to talk about an action or condition that will begin and end in the future. The formula for the simple future is will + [root form of verb], that is, (subject) 'you' will wake, or, you'll wake. Hence, Option B is correct.

The rest of the options do not express this condition. They either mention actions that have already happened (option D), actions that are happening in the present (option C) or actions that are hypothetical/unreal (option A).

Hence these options are incorrect.
