Parts of Speech: Gerunds, Participles, and Infinitives

Question 5 • PARTA - EVP: PGCPS ENGLISH 12 OC (FALL2026) 791113

How should the sentence be revised to replace the infinitives with gerunds? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
by changing “To host” to “Hosting”
B
by changing “to clean” to “cleaning”
C
by changing “to organize” to “organizing”
D
by changing “to the part” to “parting”
E
by changing “to the rooms” to “rooming”

Explanation

An infinitive is formed with “to” followed by a verb. “To host,” “to clean,” and “to organize” are infinitives, so they can be changed to the gerunds “hosting,” “cleaning,” and “organizing.” In “to the part” and “to the rooms,” “to” is a preposition, not part of an infinitive, so those phrases should not be changed to “parting” or “rooming.”
