ONLINE PRACTICE QUIZ UNIT 6:
http://www2.cambridge.org/interchangearcade/listtypes.do?level=2&unit=6&stage=1
************************************
HERE’S A QUESTION THAT A STUDENT HAD FROM THE ONLINE PRACTICE QUIZ FOR UNIT 6:
Why does the gerund need a “for” in one situation and not another?
My answer:
Regarding the different uses of GERUNDS in two different situations:
REQUESTS WITH MODALS AND “WOULD YOU MIND…?” (Un6, p.39, ex8)
First remember we are dealing with MODALS and they are ALWAYS different AND can change in different situations. THIS example is for polite requests using modals with the specific phrase—“Would you mind…” which is ALWAYS followed by an -ing verb, (gerund) always. We cannot use “for” s in these sentences.
INFINITIVES AND GERUNDS FOR USES AND PURPOSES, (Un7, p.45, ex3)
The for + gerund rule, (verb with –ing ending), is only for when we’re talking about uses and purposes of an object/machine/technology
