The correct answer is Option (2) → (B) Only
The original sentence is: "Do you mind to close the window?"
The error in this sentence lies in the phrase "mind to close." When using the verb "mind" to express a request or preference, it is typically followed by a gerund (the "-ing" form of a verb) rather than an infinitive (the "to" form of a verb).
The correct structure is: "Do you mind + gerund."
So, the corrected sentence is: "Do you mind closing the window?"
In this corrected sentence, "closing" is a gerund form of the verb "close," and it correctly follows the verb "mind." This structure is commonly used in English to politely ask someone if they are bothered or have any objection to something. |
