English

Nezavi [6.7K]4 years ago

Answer: C) lying to cover up a mistake is unwise and dishonest

Explanation:

Gerund is a word ending in<em> -ing</em> that is made from a verb. For example, the gerund form of the verb <em>'to look'</em> is <em>looking</em>. Gerund always functions as a noun.

Gerund phrases are phrases that start with a gerund. Both gerund forms and gerund phrases can function as a subject or an object (direct/indirect) in a sentence.

In the last sentence, <em>'lying'</em> is gerund, while <em>'lying to cover up a mistake'</em> is a gerund phrase that functions as a subject.
