Answer 1

**Exercise 1: Gerunds and Infinitives**Here are the answers with explanations:2. **C. going / are not ready:** "It is no use" is followed by a gerund (going). The second blank requires a verb form that agrees with "you," and "are not ready" is the correct form.3. **D. swimming/sunbathing:** The sentence describes two actions performed throughout the day. Both verbs should be in the gerund form.4. **A. to do:** "Made" is a causative verb, followed by the infinitive "to do."5. **D. telling:** "Regret" is followed by the gerund form.6. **C. turning:** "Try" can be followed by either a gerund or an infinitive, but a gerund is more natural here, suggesting the action of turning.7. **C. students to smoke:** "Allow" is followed by an object ("students") and an infinitive ("to smoke").8. **C. get:** "Must" is followed by the base form of the verb.9. **B. making:** The preposition "of" is followed by a gerund.10. **A. weighing:** The preposition "without" is followed by a gerund.11. **C. tell:** The verb "can" is followed by the base form of the verb.12. **C. gambling:** The preposition "on" is followed by a gerund.13. **D. have it repaired:** This is a causative structure. "Have something done" requires the past participle.14. **C. talk:** "Nothing but" is followed by a bare infinitive (without "to").15. **D. buying / repaired:** The first blank requires a gerund, and the second uses the past participle in a causative structure ("have something done").16. **B. to catch:** "Tried" is followed by an infinitive.17. **C. to lend/asking:** The first blank needs an infinitive ("to lend" to match "to have got"), and the second blank takes a gerund ("asking").18. **B. falling:** The preposition "after" is followed by a gerund.19. **A. to marry:** "Ask someone to do something" requires the infinitive.20. **B. to try coming:** "Told" is followed by an infinitive. "To try coming" is more natural than "to try to come" in this context.**Exercise 2: Gerund or Infinitive - Fill in the correct form.*** **They are likely to show up at any time.** ("likely" is followed by an infinitive)* **The man denied committing the crime.** ("denied" is followed by a gerund)Remember that the choice between gerund and infinitive often depends on the specific verb and the context of the sentence. There are some verbs that always take a gerund, some that always take an infinitive, and some that can take either, sometimes with a change in meaning.
