Next

Could you tell me which "next" sound natural in the following sentence?
("(A)" is a verb, "(B)" is a noun, and "(C)" is an adjective.)
Thank you.

Go on (A) next / (B) to the next / (C) to the next page(or slide - if you make a presentation with Powerpoint).

It depends on the context, I guess. "Go on next, please" is fine and "Go on to the next page", "I will do it over the next ten years" is also correct.

Thank you for your answer.
By the way, could I replace "go on" with "move on" in a situation such as I am making a presentation, or reading a book to students?

Hi, "go on to the next page" sounds more natural to me. You can say "move to the next/previous slide", if you're talking about presentation.
