Urban development should avoid .......... wetlands through drainage, infill, water diversion, pollution or the introduction of invasive species.
پاسخ صحیح: گزینهٔ B — destroying
پاسخ تشریحی
Answer: option 2 — destroying follows the verb-complement rule avoid + gerund (avoid + اسم مصدر): development should avoid the activity of destroying wetlands.
- (1) to destroy: avoid does not take a to-infinitive complement in this meaning.
- (3) which destroys: starts a relative clause, not the activity complement required after avoid; it also has no suitable noun antecedent at that position.
- (4) that is destroying: likewise supplies a finite relative clause instead of the required gerund phrase.
Exam trick: Learn avoid doing, alongside enjoy doing and finish doing; do not replace the gerund with to do.
