D
Correct Answer: A
Your Answer:
Explanation
A
In this Rules question, verb forms are changing in the answer choices, so it's testing sentence structure. In this case, the blank represents the main verb for the subject many. If the main verb is in the wrong form, the sentence won't be complete. Eliminate any answer that does not produce a complete sentence.
(A) is correct because it's in the right form to make a complete sentence.
(B) and (D) are wrong because an -ing verb can't be the main verb in a sentence.
(C) is wrong because a "to" verb can't be the main verb in a sentence.
