The answer is:B. Will

What is a helping verb? It is the word in the sentence used to help extend the meaning of the main verb.

In this case, the word "avoid" is the main verb and the word "will" is before it, it "helps it."

A quick list of helping verbs:
Will
Am
As
Was
Are
Were

There are many more helping verbs out there, but the main concept is just that that help out the main verb.

Does this make more sense now? @verita1959 Medals much appreciated
