Answer» Careful reading of the sentence tells us that a future POSSIBILITY is being talked about. Since it is a case of ‘possibility’, we can easily discard OPTIONS 3 and 4. Now to arrive at the CORRECT answer, we must understand the difference between the two given modals. ‘could’ denotes possibility. Also, in some conditional present and future tenses of ‘can’, we use ‘could’. Things that could have been true or things that could yet come true, are DENOTED by ‘could’. On the other hand, ‘WOULD’ refers to something that is conditional but definite within those conditions. Thus, it also denotes possibility like ‘could’, but in a more certain and definite manner. ‘could be’, thus becomes the most appropriate choice. Also in the later part of the sentence, ‘could be’ is again used. This makes our answer more valid. Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.

Since it is a case of ‘possibility’, we can easily discard OPTIONS 3 and 4.

Now to arrive at the CORRECT answer, we must understand the difference between the two given modals.

‘could’ denotes possibility. Also, in some conditional present and future tenses of ‘can’, we use ‘could’. Things that could have been true or things that could yet come true, are DENOTED by ‘could’.
On the other hand, ‘WOULD’ refers to something that is conditional but definite within those conditions. Thus, it also denotes possibility like ‘could’, but in a more certain and definite manner.

‘could be’, thus becomes the most appropriate choice. Also in the later part of the sentence, ‘could be’ is again used. This makes our answer more valid.
