Answer 1

Answer:

Would you mind giving these plates a wipe before putting them in the cupboard ?

Answer 2

The correct answer in giving

• Would you mind giving these plates a wipe before putting them in the cupboard ?
• The first part of the sentence starts with "would you mind" where it should be followed by a gerund.
• Giving is the most appropriate word which gives clear meaning to the sentence.
• Making cannot be used because the following words are best suited for the phrase.
• Similarly, Getting also can not be used because it would become as if the person is responsible for the act.
• Doing makes the sentence meaningless because wipe is used in the latter part of the sentence.

Therefore the best suited word is Giving.
