Correct answer: will be
First conditional uses present simple in the if-clause and "will + base verb" in the main clause for real future possibilities.
Neither of the solutions is practical for our budget.
Correct answer: is
"Neither" is singular and takes a singular verb. "Are," "were," and "none" are plural or incorrect forms.
We arrived early so that we could get good seats.
Correct answer: could get
Past tense "arrived" requires past modal "could" in the purpose clause. "Can," "will," and "none" don't match the past context.
She speaks Italian better than she speaks French.
Correct answer: speaks
Parallel structure requires the same verb form in both parts of the comparison. "Speak," "spoken," and "none" break this pattern.

Correct answer: would have left
Third conditional uses past perfect in the if-clause and "would have + past participle" in the main clause for unreal past situations.

Present continuous tense describes current ongoing actions. Other options use incorrect verb forms.

Second conditional uses past simple in the if-clause and "would + base verb" in the main clause for hypothetical situations.
She looks forward to hearing from you soon.
Correct answer: hearing
After "look forward to," we use a gerund (verb + -ing). "Hear," "heard," and "none" are incorrect forms.

Correct answer: Hardly had we reached
Inversion structure requires "hardly had + subject + past participle" with the correct correlative conjunction "when."
I wish I had more time to finish this project.
Correct answer: had
After "wish" for present unreal situations, we use past simple tense. "Have," "has," and "none" are incorrect.
Each student must submit their work before the deadline.
Correct answer: submit
After modal verbs like "must," we use the base form of the verb. "Submitted," "submitting," and "none" are incorrect.
