Some verbs in English are followed by the infinitive form (to + verb), not by the –ing form.
“Decide” is one of those verbs.
💡 Reason:
13
Multiple Choice
Choose the correct answer:
They suggested __________ another competition next semester.
to enter
entering
enter
14
💡 Reason:
The verb suggest is always followed by –ing form or a that-clause, never by “to + verb.”
Example: "suggest taking" or "suggest that"
“Suggest” doesn’t take the infinitive because it already expresses an idea or proposal. Hence, the “to” would be redundant.
15
Multiple Choice
Choose the correct answer:
The coach advised us __________ calm before the final round.
staying
stay
to stay
16
💡 Reason:
When the verb advise is followed by an object (someone), the next verb takes the infinitive form (to + base verb).
So the structure is:
advise + person + to + verb
BUT
When there is no object, “advise” can take –ing form instead.
Example: "The coach advised staying calm before the final round."
