Task 5: Use the correct form of the verbs in brackets. (to or V-ing)

1. Remember to revise these grammar rules. 2. Would you mind taking part in our discussion? 3. She felt tired so she decided to stop reading the textbook. 4. I hope to watch the talk show about Vladimir Lenin tomorrow. 5. I regret to tell you that we are not going to take part in this contest.

In this task, you are given sentences with gaps that require the correct form of the verbs in brackets. The gaps can be filled with either the base form of the verb (to + base form) or the verb in the -ing form (V-ing).

Let's go through each sentence and fill in the correct form of the verb:

1. The verb "revise" is used after "remember." We use the base form of the verb here, so it should be "to revise." 2. The verb "take part" is used after "mind." We use the -ing form of the verb here, so it should be "taking part." 3. The sentence requires two verbs. The first verb "decided" is followed by the verb "to stop." The second verb "stop" is followed by the verb "to read." So the correct forms are "to stop" and "to read." 4. The verb "hope" is followed by the verb "to watch." So the correct form is "to watch." 5. The verb "regret" is followed by the verb "to tell." So the correct form is "to tell."

By using the correct forms of the verbs in brackets, the sentences become grammatically correct and convey the intended meaning.
