    Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence: I am used to get up early in the morning.
    Question

    Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence:
    I am used to get up early in the morning.

    A.

    to get up early

    B.

    with getting up early

    C.

    to getting up early

    D.

    for getting up early

    Correct option is C

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (c) to getting up early.
    Explanation: The phrase “be used to” is followed by a noun or gerund (V+ing) because “to” here is a preposition, not part of an infinitive. Therefore, “used to get up” is wrong in this meaning (habit/familiarity). The correct form is used to getting up, which means accustomed to / habituated to doing something.
    Grammatical rule used:
    · be used to + noun / V-ing (to = preposition)
    · Example: She is used to working late at night.
    · Information booster / exceptions related to the topic:
    · Don’t confuse:
    · used to + V1 = past habit (I used to get up early.)
    · be used to + V-ing = accustomed/habituated (I am used to getting up early.)
