Choose the grammatically correct sentence.

  • A.Hoping to be hearing from you,I remain yours sincerely.
  • B.Hoping to hear from you,I remain yours sincerely.
  • C.Hoping to have heard from you,I sincerely remain yours.
  • D.Sincerely I remain yours hoping to be hearing from you.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Hoping to hear from you, I remain yours sincerely.

The participial phrase looks forward to a single future event, so the plain infinitive to hear is right, and the closing formula is fixed as yours sincerely.

Why the others fail:

  • Hoping to be hearing from you - the continuous suggests a stretch of hearing, which is not meant.
  • Hoping to have heard from you - the perfect infinitive puts the hearing before the hoping.
  • Sincerely I remain yours… - the set phrase is broken up.
