A2+-B1 Gerund or infinitive practise 1
Learning the difference between gerunds and infinitives is essential for achieving accuracy and fluency in English. Gerunds (verbs ending in -ing, like "swimming") and infinitives (the base form with "to," like "to swim") often have specific rules or conventions that dictate their use, which can change the meaning of a sentence. For example, "I stopped smoking" (gerund) means the person quit the habit, while "I stopped to smoke" (infinitive) means they paused to have a cigarette. Understanding these differences helps learners use English more precisely, avoid misunderstandings, and express their ideas in a variety of ways. Students read the sentences to see if a gerund or an infinitive is required to complete the sentences. Answers on page 2.
