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".
