Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: you will think
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
English questions typically require auxiliary–subject inversion in direct questions. This test checks your control over word order.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Form direct questions with auxiliary–subject inversion: ‘‘What will you think …?’’ not ‘‘What you will think …’’ (the latter is for embedded questions).
Step-by-Step Solution:
Detect missing inversion after ‘‘What’’.Swap auxiliary and subject: ‘‘will you’’.Corrected sentence: ‘‘What will you think if school boys make fun of you?’’
Verification / Alternative check:
Compare with an embedded clause: ‘‘Tell me what you will think …’’ (no inversion). In a direct question, inversion is mandatory.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:
Using embedded-question word order in direct questions.
Final Answer:
you will think
