Question

I was sure I .................... meet him.​

Answer 1

I was sure I will meet him.​

Explanation:

• "will' is used to complete the given sentence.

• As will and shall are modal verbs and are used to show the possibility of action.

• Normally, "Will" is used with the second or third person and "Shall" is used with the first person.

• But when it comes to command someone their roles change, the "will" is then used with the first person and "shall" is used with the second and third person.

Answer 2

Correct sentence:

I was sure, I would meet him.​

Explanation:

• The verb "would" is the past of the verb "will".
• Since, the verb "was" is the past tense, the sentence following the first sentence is also in past tense.
• This sentence is used to assume that something was happening in the past.
• This word is used in condition clause and unreal situation.
