Question 1 Report

Choose the option that best completes the gap(S).

We won't leave until it _____. raining?

Answer Details
The option that best completes the gap is "stops." The sentence is in the present tense, and the use of "until" suggests that the action of leaving is dependent on a certain condition being met. In this case, the condition is the stopping of the rain. The present simple tense "stops" is the most appropriate option here because it indicates a future action that is dependent on the current weather condition. The other options, "will stop," "stopped," and "has stopped," do not accurately convey this sense of a present condition affecting a future action. Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "We won't leave until it stops raining."
