Choose from the options lettered A – E, the most appropriate form of the verb (using the recent past) to complete the following sentences. Quand vont-ils arriver pour la réunion?Ils
Explanation
The question asks: “When are they going to arrive for the meeting?” The best reply tells you where they are now.
“Ils sont en route” means “They are on their way.” It answers the question about arrival time naturally.
“Sont arrivés” means they have already arrived, which does not fit a question about when they will come. “Veulent arriver” only says they want to arrive.
