We will rest

for sometime

when we will

reach the top

- Option 1: We will rest

No grammatical error here. It simply states the intention to rest.

- Option 2: for sometime

"Sometime" should be "some time" when referring to an unspecified amount of time. "Sometime" refers to an unspecified point in time.

- Option 3: when we will

The error lies in the tense combination. "When" is usually followed by a simple present tense when talking about future events.

- Option 4: reach the top

This is grammatically correct and logically follows the events described.

Correct Answer: Option 3 - when we will
