This exercise contains several verb tenses and the objective is for you to identify the correct verb tense or form of verb that goes in each case.
To do this, you can help yourself with the context of the sentence, the people who are carrying it out, etc.
Remember that: going to is used when we know with some certainty what is going to happen. And, following this same logic, when we talk about something that we have already decided to do.
