Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
He seems to be a director. I remember _____ in school.

• A. saw him
• B. seeing him
• C. him to see
• D. to see him

Answer 1

The correct option is B seeing him

In the given sentences, 'He' is the director in the first sentence, and the subject in the second sentence, says that he/she remembers that he/she has seen him in school before. Thus, the answer must support that very fact.

Option A is incorrect. 'saw him' contains a main verb 'saw' and the sentence already contains a main verb 'remember'. Having two main verbs in one sentence will make the sentence grammatically wrong.

Option B is correct. 'seeing him' does not contain another main verb. Further, it also justifies the fact that the subject has 'seen' the director before. Thus, it is the correct answer.

Option C is incorrect. The phrase 'him to see' does not make sense. Also, infinitives are generally used before the object ('him'). Thus, it is also grammatically wrong.

Option D is incorrect. The phrase 'to see him' in such a context indicates a regular habit of the subject to see the director at school. Therefore, it does not make any sense and is incorrect.
