Help the superhero's therapist complete her case notes by selecting the correct verb forms.
Despite fighting alien monsters daily, Captain Laser is deeply afraid of _________________________ his shiny new spaceship. He also worries about _________________________ late to his heroic rescues, and he is completely tired of _________________________ capes that get caught in elevator doors.
The correct answers are scratching, arriving, and wearing.
When a verb comes immediately after a preposition (like of, about, or for), we must use the gerund (-ing) form of the verb.
