Question : Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
I always encouraging people to read books which I have enjoyed reading myself.
Option 1: encourage people to read books
Option 2: encouraged people read books
Option 3: am encouraged people reading books
Option 4: encourage people to be reading books
Correct Answer: encourage people to read books
Solution : The first option is correct.
The verb form used in the sentence is incorrect, as encouraging should be replaced with encourage to make the sentence grammatically accurate, as the base form of the verb should be used with the subject 'I' as per the simple present tense because the sentence is talking about a habitual action of encouraging people to read books that the speaker has enjoyed.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "I always encourage people to read books which I have enjoyed reading myself".
