B. Dillon does not like writing letters.
D. After school gets out, I will be swimming most of the summer.
F. Come meet me at the swimming pool.

A gerund is mostly at the beginning of a sentence and states a noun. So always look for the noun of the sentence.

Answer:

The sentences that do not have a gerund are:

C. She was dancing with her best friend.

D. After school gets out, I will be swimming most of the summer.

Explanation:

A gerund is a verb ending in -ing that functions as a noun. Because a gerund acts like a noun, it can be a subject complement -like sentence A-, an object -like sentence B-, a subject -like sentence E- or part of a compound noun -like sentence F.

In sentences C and D, the verbs with -ing are acting as main verbs rather than as nouns.

Allushta [10]

Write a report on Make in India.

Semmy [17]

Make in India is an initiative by the Government of India to encourage companies to manufacture in India and incentivize dedicated investments into manufacturing.The policy approach was to create a conducive environment for investments, develop a modern and efficient infrastructure, and open up new sectors for foreign capital. The initiative targeted 25 economic sectors for job creation and skill enhancement,and aimed "to transform India into a global design and manufacturing hub.

Country : India
Prime Minister : Narendra Modi
Key people : Ministry of Commerce and Industry (India)
Launched : 25 September 2014
Status : Active

"Make in India" had three stated objectives:

1 ) to increase the manufacturing sector's growth rate to 12-14% per annum;
2 ) to create 100 million additional manufacturing jobs in the economy by 2022;
3 ) to ensure that the manufacturing sector's contribution to GDP is increased to 25% by 2022 (later revised to 2025).

After the launch, India gave investment commitments worth ₹16.40 lakh crore (US$230 billion) and investment inquiries worth of ₹1.5 lakh crore (US$21 billion) between September 2014 to February 2016.As a result, India emerged as the top destination globally in 2015 for foreign direct investment (FDI), surpassing the United States and China, with US$60.1 billion FDI.As per the current policy, 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is permitted in all 100 sectors, except for Space industry (74%), defence industry (49%) and Media of India (26%).Japan and India had also announced a US$12 billion 'Japan-India Make-in-India Special Finance Facility" fund to push investment.

In line with the Make in India, individual states too launched their own local initiatives, such as 'Make in Odisha,' 'Tamil Nadu Global Investors Meet,' 'Vibrant Gujarat,' 'Happening Haryana' and 'Magnetic Maharashtra.’India received US$60 billion FDI in FY 2016–17.

The World Bank's 2019 Ease of Doing Business report acknowledges India's jump of 23 positions against its rank of 100 in 2017 to be placed now at 63rd rank among 190 countries.By the end of 2017, India had risen 42 places on Ease of doing business index, 32 places World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Index, and 19 notches in the Logistics Performance Index,thanks to recent governmental initiatives, which include converges, synergies and enables other important Government of India schemes, such as Bharatmala, Sagarmala, Dedicated Freight Corridors, Industrial corridors, UDAN-RCS, Bharat Broadband Network, Digital India.

Make in India has not yet achieved its goals. The growth rate of manufacturing averaged 6.9% per annum between 2014-15 and 2019-20.The share of manufacturing dropped from 16.3% of GDP in 2014-15 to 15.1% in 2019-20.
