This question is incomplete, since it is missing the sentence we are supposed to analyze. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
"To the best of our knowledge, he decided that his major would be acting." Which does the sentence contain?
a) a conjunction
b) a gerund
c) an infinitive
d) a participle
Answer:
The sentence contains letter b) a gerund.
Explanation:
<u>Gerunds are formed by adding -ing to verbs, but they function like nouns in a sentence</u>.
In "To the best of our knowledge, he decided that his major would be acting," we have the verb "be" functioning as a linking verb, connecting the subject "major" to a word or words that provide information about that it. That word providing information on the subject is the gerund "acting", which therefore functions as a subject complement in this sentence.

When Miranda sees Ferdinand she immediately falls in love, as the only men she has ever seen before are her father and Caliban. Ferdinand also falls in love with Miranda instantly and promises to make her queen.
Prospero though, calls him a traitor and threatens to tie him up. Miranda fights for his freedom and Prospero agrees, if Ferdinand will do hard labor for him.
