Question

Fill in the blank with an appropriate form of the verb:
Elia wished she had a chance ______ climbing the hill.

• A. trying
• B. to try
• C. tried
• D. try

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

to try

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, C and D are wrong according to the rule. The correct option is B since 'to' is in front of the verb 'try'.
