Solution
The correct option is A waiting In this sentence, we would be understanding the usage of verbs. Verbs are words used to describe an action, state, or occurrence and forming the main part of the predicate of a sentence. If we look into this sentence in a proper way, we would be able to understand that the blank is the object of a verb, again as a verb, it also takes an object. This proves that we need a gerund in the blank.
Option A: Is a simple future tense
Option B: Is in the simple past tense
Option C Is the wrong formation of the phrase
Option D It acts as a noun as well as a verb. It is the correct answer.
