I like to read books, but my brother prefers to watching movies.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. to watch.

"To watch" is the correct option.

The original phrase "to watching" is incorrect grammatically.

The correct form is "to watch," which maintains a parallel structure with the preceding phrase "to read."

So, the corrected sentence reads: "I like to read books, but my brother prefers to watch movies."
