a is correct |
Choosing option (a) will result in the following grammatically incorrect sentence: "I going to invite all my friends over for a big party." X Actually, none of the options will produce a grammatically correct sentence if inserted into the blank because the "going to" part is already in the sentence. The correct version of the sentence should be this: "I am going to invite all my friends over for a big party."

Actually, option c is not a correctly written sentence. This would be correct: c) The problem is that I'm used to working on my own.

I agree that there is an apostrophe missing in Frederic's question. Are you satisfied with the punctuation and capitalization in your own sentence, Torsten?  ____________________________________ In the republic of mediocrity, genius is dangerous. ~ Robert Green Ingersoll |
