c) finding the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task.

The answer is letter C, Finding the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task.

Explanation:

A gerund is a part of speech which looks like a verb, but is actually a noun. It can be the subject of a sentence, an object of the verb, an object of a preposition or a subject complement. This is formed by adding "ing" to a verb.

In the sentence above, "Finding the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task." The gerund is "Finding" and it is acting as a subject of the sentence.

Remember that gerunds act singular, thus the verb that is being used to accompany them is also singular.

The answer is: C) Finding the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task.
