Solution

The correct option is B Infinitive
Choice D is correct as the infinitive verb must begin with 'to' followed by a simple verb. Choice A is incorrect as a gerund has a -ing ending. Choice B is incorrect as past participle of dance is 'danced' Choice C is incorrect as present participle of dance is 'dancing'. Hence D is correct.
