Question

Choose the correct option to replace the word(s) given in brackets:

We are asked (be) there in the main hall.

• A. being
• B. been
• C. to be
• D. be to

Answer 1

The correct option is C to be

The infinitive verb is a verb with the word 'to' in front of it. This verb is always just a verb. There is no - ed, no - ing, no - s at the end of the verb. Thus, options A, B and D are wrong according to the rule. The correct option is C since 'to' is used in front of the verb 'be'. Hence, sentence would become: We are asked to be there in the main hall.
