(A) True
(B) False

Answer 1

Hint: Whenever we talk about future tense we should keep in mind that the action has not yet happened and is expected to happen after some time or within some time, so we talk about the possibility in these types of situations. However, the action may or may not happen.

Complete answer: A verb is a word that is used to describe the action. These are commonly known as action words and tell about the occurrence or state of action. They form the main part of the predicate of a sentence. Trivially, the predicate is everything except the subject.
Future continuous tense is also known as ‘future progressive tense’. It describes the state of action, that is, it is a verb. It tells that something will occur in the future and has not happened in the past. So whenever we use the words ‘will’, ‘shall’ we must remember that they are describing the future. It also says that that action will continue for an expected length of time, and so the word ‘continuous’.
To form a sentence in the future continuous tense we keep the following rule in mind-
will + be + the present participle (root verb + __ing)
Example - (1) Tomorrow I will be studying Chemistry.
                  (2) She will be coming to my house on Sunday.
The above two sentences, clearly, represent an action taking place at some time in future and are used to discuss some actions that are scheduled to happen for a specific period of time. Focus that the structure is ‘will + be + the present participle form of the verb’. So these sentences are an example of future continuous tense. So, the correct option is (A)True.

Note: There are four types of future tenses in English.
(i)Simple future tense
(ii)Future continuous tense.
(iii)Future perfect tense.
(iv)Future perfect continuous tense.
