Question

Fill in the gaps in the sentences below with gerunds or infinitives in English. The teacher advised Henry _____ (finish) his report on time. The man complained about _____ (have) to pay extra for something he didn’t order. They warned the teachers _____ (treat) their students fairly. Sheila postponed _____ (go) on a vacation for a week​

Answer 1

• The teacher advised Henry to finish (finish) his report on time.
• The man complained about having (have) to pay extra for something he didn’t order.
• They warned the teachers to treat (treat) their students fairly.
• Sheila postponed going (go) on a vacation for a week​

La diferencia en estos ejemplos es que para usar gerundio es cuando hablamos de una acción y para usar el infinitivo hablamos de una instrucción, algo que nos ordenaron.
