    B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The incorrect sentence uses “about” followed by the verb “go”, when it should be “about” followed by the gerund form of the verb “going.” Gerunds are verbs that function as nouns and end in -ing. In this case, “going” acts as a noun and is the object of the preposition “about.”
