• D. they will be opened the shutters of the dam.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. they would open the shutters of the dam.

This sentence is an example of a conditional sentence, specifically the first conditional. This type of sentence is used to talk about a possible future event and its likely result.

The structure of the first conditional is: If + simple present tense, subject + will + verb (base form)

In this case:

• The condition is: "If it rains (simple present tense) for some more time."

• The result is: "they will open (will + base form) the shutters of the dam."
