The word <em>wishing </em>is used as a participle in this case. Although gerunds and participles look the same, they are used in different senses - gerunds generally denote nouns, whereas participles have more of an adverbial meaning.

Select the sentence that uses a gerund phrase as a predicate noun. Christa chose to write a literary critique of the novel Olive
Pavlova-9 [17]
A gerund looks like a verb which ends in -ing, but it functions as a noun in a sentence. A predicate noun follows a linking verb, such as <em>to be, to seem, </em>etc. So, among all these examples, the only gerund phrase which is used as a predicate noun is found in the last sentence, and the gerund is leading, whereas the whole phrase is leading people to their seats.
