Question

    I couldnā€™t help _____________ you because you are

    ____________ than pretty, and I like that sort of a person. Fill in the blanks with correct words from the options.
    A to love, more generous Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B looking, kinder Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C to avoid, beautiful Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D avoiding, warmest Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E loving, more kind Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, ā€˜couldnā€™t helpā€™ is a verb that is followed by a gerund and not ā€˜to infinitiveā€™. SO, ā€˜lovingā€™ is correct. Also, two qualities of the same person are compared. So, the comparative ā€˜erā€™ should not be used. I couldnā€™t help loving you because you are more kind than pretty, and I like that sort of a person.
