Answer:

Well, I can't quite determine if you mean for this to be a trick question or if you are serious.

I say that because technically speaking, A and C show future tense, while B and D show past tense.

Of all the options, A is the best one to represent the present tense. While it certainly <u><em>can</em></u> represent the present tense, it does a much better job at representing the future tense. Yes, really. Let me give you some other examples so you'll see what I mean.....

Explanation:

Today, I'm leaving for Paris on the 4:00 p.m. flight.   =    future tense

Today, the army is sending me to boot camp.    =   future tense

.......................

I should add....

If you were to say:  "Today, I'm babysitting my nephew."  --- <u><em>and you said it at the moment that you are in the house next to your nephew</em></u> -- then, THAT would be present tense.

In this example, we're talking about an action that is happening at the moment of speaking unlike option A above which refers to an action that hasn't happened yet.

Have you got it??

The animals could be convinced to believe or do almost anything by
astraxan [27]
<span>the treat that Mr.Jones will come back; Each time the animals dare to question an aspect of Napoleon’s regime, Squealer threatens them with Jones’s return. This is doubly threatening to the animals because it would mean another battle that, if lost, would result in a return to their former lifestyle of submission. Jones’s return is such a serious threat that it quashes the animals’ curiosity without fail.</span>
