    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    The use of the modal verb 'may' is incorrect. 'May' is generally used to express a possibility or a suggestion which is not the case here. 'Shall' is used in questions indicating offers or suggestions. The verb 'do not turn up' is in the present tense and so 'could' or 'would' cannot be used.
