I would love fly a fighter jet one day.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. would love to fly.
The phrase "would love to fly" is grammatically correct because "love" is followed by the infinitive form of the verb "to fly".
The infinitive form is necessary here to correctly express the desire or wish to perform the action of flying a fighter jet.
The original segment "love fly" is incorrect because it lacks the participle "to" needed to connect the verb "love" with the action "fly."
NOTE: -
In the structure - would love to fly- "to" does not function as a preposition but rather as part of the verb form itself, indicating the infinitive.
