Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.

If you drop the vase, it ______; I ______ it up right now so that nobody ______ hurt.

Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (C) will break; will pick; gets

Concept (First Conditional with 'Will'): 'If' clause में Simple Present आता है (If you drop the vase), जबकि main clause में परिणाम 'will + V1' (it will break) से दिया जाता है।
'I ______ it up right now' एक तत्काल लिया गया निर्णय है, इसलिए 'will pick' आता है। 'So that nobody ______ hurt' के purpose clause (उद्देश्यवाचक उपवाक्य) में Simple Present 'gets' आता है।
अतः सही क्रम है: will break; will pick; gets।
विकल्प (a) में 'it breaks' से परिणाम की निश्चितता कमज़ोर हो जाती है। विकल्प (b) में 'I pick' तत्काल निर्णय नहीं दर्शाता। विकल्प (d) में purpose clause के बाद 'will get' ग़लत है।
Exam trap: 'if' clause में 'will drop' या main clause में 'gets' लिखना।
Concept (First Conditional with 'Will'): In the 'if' clause, the simple present is used (If you drop the vase), while the main clause gives the result with 'will + V1' (it will break).
'I ______ it up right now' describes a decision taken on the spot, so 'will pick' is used. In 'so that nobody ______ hurt', the purpose clause takes the simple present 'gets'.
So the correct order is: will break; will pick; gets.
Option (a) weakens the certainty of the result with 'breaks'. Option (b) with 'I pick' does not show an immediate decision. Option (d) has 'will get' after the purpose clause, which is wrong.
Exam trap: writing 'will drop' in the 'if' clause, or 'gets' in the main clause.
