Question

Fill in the blank with the gerund, infinitive or other appropriate form of the verb:
He loved _____ chocolate.

• A. to eat
• B. eats
• C. eaten
• D. ate

Answer 1

The correct option is A to eat

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 B, C and D are wrong according to the rule. The correct option is A since 'to' is in front of the verb 'eat'. Hence, sentence would become: He loved to eat chocolate.
