Question 3 • TX-English IV

I regret those expensive jeans.

Answer
A
that I bought
B
buying
C
to buy

Explanation

Use “regret” followed by a gerund (-ing form) when you feel sorry about something you did. “I regret buying those expensive jeans” means you wish you had not bought them. “To buy” does not fit this meaning, and “that I bought” would need to be placed after “jeans”: “I regret those expensive jeans that I bought.”
