The sentence that includes a gerund is:
I am running a marathon this weekend.
In this sentence, "running" is the gerund.
That's wrong
I apologize for the oversight. Let's review the options again:
- A healthy breakfast of steaming hot biscuits is served. - No gerund.
- I am running a marathon this weekend. - "Running" is a present participle, not a gerund in this context.
- My family is impressed by my cooking. - "Cooking" is a gerund.
- The runners are lacing up their shoes. - No gerund.
The correct answer is:
My family is impressed by my cooking.
Thank you for your patience, and I'm sorry for the mistake!
