I wouldn’t dream to raise the price.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. of raising.

Statement: I wouldn’t dream to raise the price.

The preposition 'of' should be used instead of 'to.' 

The infinitive form (to + verb) of the verb is used as a noun, adjective, or adverb. So, 'to raise' should be replaced by 'of raising.'

Correct statement: I wouldn’t dream of raising the price.
