Answer 2

I will answer your questions in detail. Here are the correct forms of the gerunds and infinitives in each sentence, and the reasons why they are correct.

1. He apologized for being late. This is correct because some verbs are followed by gerunds, not infinitives. Apologize is one of those verbs . 2. I'm really looking forward to going ice-skating tomorrow. This is correct because the expression look forward to is followed by a gerund . 3. I enjoy talking to you. This is correct because enjoy is another verb that is followed by a gerund . 4. I’d like to have dinner at that restaurant again. This is correct because like can be followed by either a gerund or an infinitive, but the meaning changes slightly. When like is followed by a gerund, it means you enjoy something as a general preference. When like is followed by an infinitive, it means you want to do something or you think it is a good idea . In this sentence, the speaker wants to have dinner at that restaurant again, so the infinitive is used. 5. They promised me to come. This is correct because promise is one of the verbs that can be followed by an infinitive with a noun or pronoun referring to a person . In this sentence, the noun me refers to a person, so the infinitive is used. 6. Glad to meet you! This is correct because some adjectives can be followed by infinitives, especially when they express feelings or opinions . Glad is one of those adjectives. 7. I don’t mind playing football, but I prefer volleyball. This is correct because mind is another verb that is followed by a gerund . 8. Let’s go sunbathing today! This is correct because go can be followed by a gerund when it means to do an activity for fun or relaxation . Sunbathing is such an activity. 9. I’d better finish here. This is correct because some expressions are followed by bare infinitives, which are infinitives without to . I’d better (I had better) is one of those expressions. 10. Let us help you. This is correct because let is another expression that is followed by a bare infinitive .

I hope this helps you understand the use of gerunds and infinitives better.
