Correct Answer: either you will


Solution : The first option is correct.

  • The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
  • Here, or you will, should be used instead of either you will .
  • Either...Or ('one or another') is used in affirmative sentences to offer a choice between two possibilities or to express a cause-and-effect relationship
  • In the given sentence, only or should be used as the conjunction or means, if not otherwise.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: You must reach the airport on time or you will miss your flight.
