Answer:

Tomorrow night when we take the ghost tour of the city, I will be quaking in my boots, hoping we don’t actually see anything too spooky!

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above sentence, the verb phrase which will be used is 'will be quaking'. 'Will' is the auxiliary verb which is used in the future tense. In the sentence, the planning is being made about 'tomorrow' therefore the verb phrase used will also be in the future tense.

The answer is will be quaking because it is referring to future tense and it has not happened yet. Note that tomorrow is a fugue tense word
