If you park your car here, the traffic police `ul("has fined you")`

Options

A. will fine you
B. fine you
C. No improvement
D. fined you

Answer

A

Explanation

The sentence is an example of first conditional sentences. Such sentences are used to show what action one will take in a particular situation. Like in the given sentence, the second clause shows the action of the traffic police when someone parks a car at some location. In such sentences, we use simple present tense with the .if. clause and simple future tense with the main clause. See the structure below:
if + present simple, ... will + infinitive
Example: If I have money, I will help the needy.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
