Answer:

1) eating

2) spending

3) going

4) calling

Explanation:

1) My kids can't stop eating cakes.

  • We use the gerund ("eating") here because it describes the action of "eating" as an ongoing habit.

2) My brother dislikes spending money on books.

  • We use the gerund ("spending") here because it follows the verb "dislikes" which typically takes a gerund to express the action disliked.

3) I remember going to granny as a child.

  • We use the infinitive ("going") here because it follows the verb "remember" which takes an infinitive to express a completed action in the past.

4) Andy suggested calling her brother so she wouldn't be late.

  • We use the infinitive ("calling") here because it follows the verb "suggested" which introduces the purpose or reason for the suggestion.
