Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option D: Will have
Concept: Future Perfect Continuous Tense.

Formula:
$$\text{By + Future Year (2030)} \rightarrow \mathbf{Will\ have\ been\ + Verb-ing}$$

Solution: Time marker "By 2030" specifies future completion of duration, requiring "Will have".

Why other options are incorrect:
  • Options A & C: Past or present perfect auxiliaries.

  • Option B: Lacks 'have' needed for perfect continuous 'been reading'.
