The correct answer is C. The tailor asked him if he would have the suit ready by the next evening.
The tailor’s question is in the form of a modal verb, which is a verb that expresses possibility, necessity, or permission. In this case, the modal verb “will” expresses possibility. The tailor is asking the customer if it is possible for him to have the suit ready by the next evening.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the meaning of the tailor’s question. Option A is incorrect because it uses the future tense, which is not appropriate for a question about possibility. Option B is incorrect because it uses the past tense, which is not appropriate for a question about the present. Option D is incorrect because it uses the modal verb “like,” which expresses a desire or preference. The tailor is not asking the customer if he would like to have the suit ready by the next evening; he is asking if it is possible for him to do so.
