Question

Fill in the blanks with the correct word / phrase.

I dread ____ what would have happened if there had been an accident.

• A. Thinking
• B. Thought of
• C. To think
• D. The thought

Answer 1

The correct option is C To think

In english, most often when one verb is already conjugated (I.e 'dread', in this case), any following verb appears in it's infinitive form ('To think' as opposed to just 'think'). As we see in the original sentence, this makes 'To think' the correct answer - making Option C), correct. All the other answer are incorrect.
