What are collocations?

Collocations are words or phrases that are often used together. For example, the phrase "look forward" is followed by "to" and a verb in the gerund. Thus, "look forward to ...-ing" is a collocation.

The good thing about collocations is that they sound right or natural. If you say something it sounds off, that means the collocation is wrong. For example, saying "worried in" does not sound okay. The correct collocation would be "worried about."

Taking that into consideration, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.
