Which sentence includes a gerund?

A. I am running a marathon this weekend.
B. The runners are lacing up their shoes.<<<<<<
C. My family is impressed by my cooking.
D. A healthy breakfast of steaming hot biscuits is served.
Answered by Writeacher
No, in sentence B, the word "lacing" is part of the main verb.
subject = runners
verb = are lacing

Try substituting a noun (such as <i>talent</i>) in place of each -ing word. The one that still makes sense will indicate the original is a gerund.

Thank you guys! It helped a lot
Answered by Lancelot
The answer is not B. The answer would actually be C. This is because it says family (verb/subject) and cooking (noun). This would make it a gerund.
