Explanation:

To determine the future - tense sentence, we analyze each option:

• The first option ("Their gran gives...") uses the present simple ("gives") and present simple in the dependent clause ("won't nap" is negative present, but the main action is present), so it's not future tense.
• The second option ("I don't see...") uses present simple ("don't see", "looks"), so it's present tense.
• The third option ("Will we ever send...") uses the modal verb "will" which is a key indicator of future tense, as it expresses a future action (sending astronauts to the moon again).
• The fourth option ("Whenever she was...") uses past simple ("was", "turned", "felt"), so it's past tense.

Answer:

B. Will we ever send astronauts to the moon again?
