Question

Read the sentence.

Answer 1

The correct answers are:
1. By changing “To host” to “Hosting”
2. By changing “to clean” to “cleaning”
3. By changing “to organize” to “organizing”


Explanation:
Gerund acts as a noun in the sentence, and it can be formed by using the base form of a verb + ing. Infinitive, on the other hand, can also be used as a noun, and it can be formed by using "to"+base form of a verb.

In the given sentence, the infinitives that are acting as a noun are:
1. To host
2. To clean
3. To organize

In the above infinitive, the base forms of verbs are the following: host, clean, and organize. Now to convert infinitive to gerunds, we would use the formula for gerund as explained above.

Hence,
"to host" would be converted to "hosting." (host + ing = Gerund)
"to clean" would be converted to "cleaning." (clean + ing = Gerund)
"to organize" would be converted to "organizing." (organize + ing = Gerund)

Therefore, the correct answers are:

1. By changing “To host” to “Hosting”
2. By changing “to clean” to “cleaning”
3. By changing “to organize” to “organizing”

Answer 2

The following are the gerunds that must replace the infinitives in the sentence: -“to host” to “hosting -“to clean” to cleaning -and “to organize” to organizing. These are gerunds that needed to replace those infinitives because they serve as subjects to the sentence.
