B Correct answer
Explanation

(1), (3) and (4) are incorrect because in a complex sentence, if the main clause is in the Simple Future Tense, the subordinate clause has to be in the Simple Present Tense and none of the (1), (3) and (4) fulfils this condition. Option (2) fulfils this condition.     Answer: (2)
