Correct Answer: in serving


Solution : The fourth option is correct.

  • The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
  • Here, " in serving " should be used instead of " to serve".
  • The noun " pride" is followed by a preposition in . And after the preposition, the verb is used in the 'ing' form.
  • Hence, " serving" should be used

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: I take pride in serving my country.
