Option A. will have destroyed -This is the answer.
Explanation:
- The termites will have destroyed the house by next year.
- In the given sentence, we see that it talks about the future because it has 'by next year'.
- Option C is wrong because it is in simple past tense.
- Option D is also incorrect because it is simple present tense.
- If the sentence talks about something that is happening in the near future then option B is 'will be destroying' is acceptable. But it talks about something that is happening in the distant future. So option B is wrong.
- Option A 'will have destroyed' is correct. It is because when we talk about something that is going to happen in the distant future (by next year), future perfect is correct.
