Answer 1

Answer: (A)

has been suffering

Here, 'has been ....' in present continuous is correct it implies an action going on at the time of speaking.
'Will be ...' in future continuous tense is incorrect because it indicates what will be going on in the near future.
'Is suffering' in present simple tense is correct because it is used to indicate a future event on a designated date as part of a plan.
'Was suffering' in past continuous incorrect because it is used to indicate uncompleted action in the past (with or without time reference).
