Thank you, Tarheel.

Is using "of" incorrect in this sentence?

What does the sentence mean? IS the speaker WORRIED about something?
What's the difference between "is worried" and "worry?"

Yes, "of" is incorrect. I would have changed your original to "An example sentence for "close in" ...".

"Does the speaker worry ...?" suggests a habitual action. You're talking about a specific single situation, so use "Is the speaker worried ...?"
