3)am going to open

4)is going to buy

Answer 2

1. My train leaves in 10 minutes. (This is the most appropriate option for a scheduled future action, as "leaves" indicates a fixed time in the future.)

2. George is meeting his colleagues next Friday. (The present continuous tense "is meeting" is suitable for a planned future event.)

3. Listen! There’s someone at the door. I am going to open the door for you. (Using "am going to open" indicates an intention to perform an action in the near future.)

4. Sandy is going to buy a new jumper but she hasn’t chosen the colour yet. (The future with "is going to buy" works well here, as it implies an intention to buy something in the future.)
