Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. prefers to walk.
- As there is “every day” in the statement that shows that the action done in the statement is a habit, we need to keep the verb of the statement in a simple present.
- For showing habit/routine/universal truth/fact etc we use the simple present.
- So, the chosen option will improve the sentence grammatically and contextually.
The correct sentence will be-
My student, a doctor by profession, prefers to walk to the hospital every day.
