Correct Answer: A signboard will be hanging there for the travellers, indicating the directions.
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
Explanation : To change a sentence into the future tense, we need to adjust the verbs to indicate that the action will occur in the future. In the original sentence, the phrase "was hanging" is in the past tense.
- Change "was hanging" to "will be hanging". This modification suggests that the action (the signboard hanging) is going to happen in the future.
- The rest of the sentence remains mostly unchanged, as the main verb is the only component that needs to be adjusted to reflect the future tense.
