Find the mistake in the sentence

I really look forward for studying Japanese to prepare
A B C
for my trip to Tokyo.
D
(A) look forward
(B) for studying
(C) to prepare
(D) for my trip

I saw in one of the reply the correct sentence suggested as below.

"I really look forward to studying Japanese in order of preparing my trip to Tokyo."

but here i see 2 changes in the sentence. one is "To studying" and other is "In order of preparing". but ans is one.

please suggest . i think the ans is B and it should be "To study" instead of "For studying" but not sure.Amit

Hi Amit I agree with you that the answer is B, but it should say "to studying" instead of "for studying". This is because "look forward" always uses the preposition "to" after it. Best wishes Mo

This sentence is natural to me:

I really look forward to studying Japanese to prepare for my trip to Tokyo.

The phrasal verb is "look forward to" followed by a gerund. Here are some more examples:

I am looking forward to seeing you next week.
He looks forward to playing football with his friends.
