Let’s go through each sentence one by one. We need to fill in the blank with
shall or
will + the verb in brackets (in simple present form) to talk about future actions.
Remember:
- Use
will for most people (he, she, it, they, we, you).
- Use
shall only with “I” — but even then, “will” is more common now.
- The instructions say: *“Shall is used with personal pronoun ‘I’ to talk about future.”* But looking at the sentences, none of them use “I”, so we’ll mostly use
will.
Also, note: These are predictions or scheduled events in the future — so “will” fits perfectly.

1) The train ________ (arrive) at 4:30 pm.
→ This is a schedule. Trains arrive on time (hopefully!). So:
The train will arrive at 4:30 pm.
2) Girls ________ (see) a movie every week.
→ This sounds like a habit or plan for the future. Even though “every week” sounds routine, the context is future tense. So:
Girls will see a movie every week.
3) Sam ________ (write) a letter to me.
→ Sam is a person (third person), so we use “will”.
Sam will write a letter to me.
4) We ________ (swim) on Sundays.
→ “We” → use “will”.
We will swim on Sundays.
5) Madhu ________ (give) me her books in the evening.
→ Madhu is third person (she), so “will”.
Madhu will give me her books in the evening.

Final Answer:
1) will arrive
2) will see
3) will write
4) will swim
5) will give
