[amp_mcq option1=”to be spending” option2=”to spend” option3=”to have been spending” option4=”No improvement” correct=”option3″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: C. to have been spending<\/p>\n
Ravi’s father did not want to have spent all his money at the fair. This means that Ravi’s father had already spent all his money at the fair, and he regretted it. The use of the perfect infinitive (to have been spending) indicates that the action (spending money) was completed before a specific point in time (the moment when Ravi’s father realized that he had spent all his money).<\/p>\n
The other options are incorrect because they do not express the same meaning. Option A, to be spending, indicates that Ravi’s father was in the process of spending his money at the fair. Option B, to spend, indicates that Ravi’s father was planning to spend his money at the fair. Option D, No improvement, is incorrect because the sentence is already grammatically correct.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
