Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C) On the first torrid day of summer, we always enjoy swimming.

Explanation:

Gerunds are words formed by adding -ing to verbs. Even though they look like verbs, they behave like nouns, having the same functions nouns have in a sentence. A gerund can, for example, function as the subject of a sentence or the object of a verb.

In letter C, we have precisely a gerund acting as the object of the verb "enjoy". Enjoy is a stative verb, or verb of feeling. Other stative verbs are like, love, hate, mind, and stand. These verbs often taken gerunds as their objects. For example:

- Would you mind watching the kids for a moment?

- She loves reading in the evening.

In "On the first torrid day of summer, we always enjoy swimming," "swimming" is a gerund functioning as the object of the verb "enjoy".

Why doesn't Desdemona identify her husband as her murderer with her dying breath?
antoniya [11.8K]
Desdemona lies asleep in bed, and Othello enters, dreadfully calm and sure in what he must do. Desdemona wakens and calls him to bed, but he tells her to pray at once, repenting anything she needs to repent, and he will wait while she prays because he does not want to kill her soul. Suddenly, Desdemona realizes that Othello intends to kill her. She is afraid, although she knows she is not guilty. Knowing that she cannot convince him of her fidelity, Desdemona weeps and begs him to banish her rather than kill her, or let her live just a little more, but he stifles her, presumably with a pillow.
