Bob . . . . . . . . with us tonight as he . . . . . . . . an appointment with the dentist.

won't have trained/is making
hasn't trained/was making
hadn't trained/made
doesn't train/makes E. isn't going to train/has made

The correct answer is: Bob won’t have trained with us tonight as he is making an appointment with the dentist.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Bob hasn’t trained means that he has not trained yet, but he may still train in the future. This is not consistent with the fact that he has an appointment with the dentist, which suggests that he will not be able to train.
  • Bob hadn’t trained means that he had not trained before, but he may have trained since then. This is also not consistent with the fact that he has an appointment with the dentist, which suggests that he will not be able to train.
  • Bob doesn’t train means that he does not train at all. This is not consistent with the fact that he is making an appointment with the dentist, which suggests that he is interested in training.
  • Bob makes means that he is currently training. This is not consistent with the fact that he has an appointment with the dentist, which suggests that he will not be able to train.

The sentence “Bob won’t have trained with us tonight as he is making an appointment with the dentist” can be paraphrased as “Bob will not be able to train with us tonight because he has an appointment with the dentist.”
