Okay, class, let's complete these sentences using the correct forms of verbs – either the '-ing' form (gerund) or the 'to + verb' form (infinitive). Here are some possible answers:
1. I usually avoid **talking to strangers**.
2. I'm happy **to help others**.
3. It's not worth **arguing over small things**.
4. There's no point **crying over spilled milk**.
5. I spend a lot of time **reading books**.
6. I don't mind **doing the dishes**.
7. I can't stand **being late**.
8. I'd prefer **to go to the beach**.
9. I love **listening to music**.
10. I really want **to travel the world**.
**Explanation**:
* **-ing form (Gerund)**: We often use the '-ing' form after verbs like 'avoid', 'mind', 'can't stand', 'love', and after prepositions like 'worth' and 'point'. It’s used when the verb acts more like a noun.
* **to + verb form (Infinitive)**: We use the 'to + verb' form after verbs like 'happy', 'prefer', 'want'. It’s often used to express purpose or intention.
Remember, these are just examples. You can use different verbs based on your own preferences and experiences. The key is to use the correct form.
