Answer:

The answer is option D.

Explanation:

For this question, the four options are part of the Grice's Maxims. As part of them, maxim of manner refers to a situation when a person avoids ambiguity by expressing their ideas as clearly and orderly as possible.  In this case, Allen mentions a part of the project, but it doesn't specify what it is and the use of pronouns in his speech is ambiguous, so option D is the correct answer.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The gerund phrases are:

  • "Being the accounts manager" (Subject)
  • "blowing bubbles to his little sister" (Subjet Complement)

Gerund phrases begin with a gerund or -ing word, and include other modifiers and objects. They function as nouns, and can be the subject, subject complement or direct object of the sentence.

The rest of the alternatives are not gerund phrases because options one and three possess an infinitive verb ("to bring" and "to win"), and "Hiking for two hours" is a present participle clause.
