Answer 2

In most of these sentences, both options (the base form and the infinitive) can be used, and the choice depends on the context and intended meaning. Here are the possible choices for each sentence:

1. Asanaly Ashimov liked acting / to act. (Both are possible, but "acting" might be more common in this context.)

2. She was tired so she decided to go / going home. (Both are possible, but "to go" is more commonly used.)

3. He started working to work in the theatre. (The correct option is "working.")

4. They can't stand waiting / to wait for a bus. (Both are possible, but "waiting" is more commonly used.)

5. We wanted to watch / watching a film. (Both are possible, but "to watch" is more commonly used.)

6. I enjoy acting / to act in comedy roles. (Both are possible, but "acting" is more commonly used.)

7. You hoped to see / seeing Mariya at the weekend, didn't you? (Both are possible, but "to see" is more commonly used.)

8. They needed to buy / buying music. (Both are possible, but "to buy" is more commonly used.)

9. I fancy eating an ice cream. (The correct option is "eating.")

So, in most cases, you can choose either option, but one might be more commonly used or preferred in certain contexts.
