Which sentence correctly uses a gerund after the verb ‘enjoy’?
AShe enjoys reading novels.
BShe enjoys to reading novels.
CShe enjoys read novels.
DShe enjoys to read novels.
Explanation
Certain verbs in English, including ‘enjoy,’ ‘avoid,’ ‘finish,’ and ‘suggest,’ must be followed by a gerund, the ‘-ing’ form of a verb used as a noun, rather than a to-infinitive. Since ‘enjoy’ belongs to this group of verbs, ‘enjoys reading’ is correct, while ‘enjoys to read’ incorrectly pairs ‘enjoy’ with an infinitive form it does not grammatically accept.
