C) eating all the ice cream in the freezer
D) listening to my collection of sad music
Answer:
The correct answer is option A) I felt so bad yesterday afternoon.
Explanation:
If you pay attention, all the options, including the example, contain verbs ending in<em> ing.

Option A does not have the same structure, therefore that is the option that does not fit with the rest.
Words ending in <em>ing </em>can be the following: gerunds, verbal nouns, present participles. In the case of the example we have the ending <em>ing</em> used as a gerund, where the verb is used as if it were a noun.
Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option A.
