5. Which of the following is not correct?
They decided to start early
He enjoys going for walks in the morning
Vinod attempted writing a book
He resents being reminded again and again
Correct Answer :
Vinod attempted writing a book
Solution
The verb "attempt" is typically followed by an infinitive (to + base verb), not a gerund (verb + ing) in this context. The correct phrasing should be "Vinod attempted to write a book". The other sentences (A, B, D) use verbs followed by the correct grammatical forms (infinitive after "decide", gerund after "enjoy" and "resent").
