would

will

C.

D.

Correct Answer: will

Explanation

There must be a consistency in the use of verb. The sentence starts with present tense (notice is going and hope), the omitted verb must be a present tense verb. Will is appropriate not shall because will expresses what is expected to happen while shall expresses what one might do himself in the future.
