Answer:

The laughing boy in the boat likes sailing

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the complete information, here is the complete question:

Replace the infinitive in the sentence with the gerund form of the same verb.

The laughing boy in the boat likes to sail.

Verb in the grammatical structures can be used as infinitives (to + verb) or as gerunds ( verb + -ing) the infinitive that this sentence is using is "to sail" so that changing the form from infinitive to gerund would give us the form "sailing", in this case, the meaning is not affected by the change in the structure and remains the same.

The infinitive that is used in the given sentence above is "to sail". So to make this into a gerund form, it will become "sailing". Therefore, the new sentence will be like this: The laughing boy in the boat likes SAILING. Hope this answers your question.

<span>The correct answer should be A. Investing in stocks. That's basically why the great depression happened in the first place.

This lead to the whole stock market crashing and this in turn destroyed the banks and banks had to pull themselves out so they pulled the regular people in and the whole economic system collapsed.</span>

Have you ever had to adjust your communication style to engage a customer or teammate? what was the situation and the outcome?
stealth61 [152]
     Most of the people in a third world country who deals with a lot of tourists or foreigners can relate to this. There will always be a language barrier that you should be wary of. I had worked as a tour-guide once and I had Japanese customers with me. As you may know, most of Japanese people have a hard time speaking in or understanding English and if they don't, they somehow find it difficult to pronounce some words. As a tour-guide, I need to speak slowly and clearly so that they will be able to understand every word that I say. In turn, they respond and ask questions to me which means that they are hesitant to do so.
