Solution
The correct option is D 're going Gerunds are words that are formed with verbs but act as nouns. Gerunds also at times are seen to end in 'ing'. In this particular sentence, the word in the blank acts a noun thus becoming the subject of the sentence and also like a verb by taking up the object. This means that in the blank, we would need a gerund.
Option C: Going is a gerund as it behaves as a noun as well as a verb in the sentence
Option B and Option D: Go is the present perfect tense.
Option A: Although there is presence of "ing" in this sentence, it acts as a verb in this case.
