The scientists are busy to explore new ideas.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is 'exploring'.
Key Points
- The error lies incorrect usage of infinitive after the adjective 'busy'.
- The word 'busy' is an adjective that means occupied with or concentrating on a particular activity or object of attention. In other words, it is describing the noun 'scientist', therefore, using infinitives with adjectives is incorrect.
- To describe the adjective we need an adjective complement. Adjective complement is a phrase that is used to describe the adjective or adds meaning to it.
- Example:
- I considered leaving the Army.
- He was busy doing his work.
- Example:
- Thus, 'exploring' will be used in place of 'to explore'.
Correct sentence: The scientists are busy exploring new ideas.
Additional Information
- Adjective: a word or phrase naming an attribute, added to or grammatically related to a noun to modify or describe it.
