Answer

Ответы: 1 waiting, 2 meet, 3 walking, 4 rewrite, 5 to help, 6 speak, 7 to catch, 8 seeing, 9 getting, 10 finish, 11 remembering, 12 to hear, 13 to solve, 14 sing, 15 to arrive, 16 dancing, 17 to call, 18 stay.

Почему так

-ing form: №1 waiting — can’t stand + V-ing; №3 walking — prefer V-ing to V-ing; №8 seeing — look forward to + V-ing, здесь to — предлог; №9 getting — be used to + V-ing = «привыкли»; №11 remembering — difficulty in + V-ing; №16 dancing — love + V-ing.

to + инфинитив: №5 to help — kind of you + to V; №7 to catch — manage + to V; №12 to hear — sad + to V; №13 to solve — enough + to V; №15 to arrive — expect + to V; №17 to call — promise + to V.

Инфинитив без to: №2 meet — после will; №4 rewrite — make + объект + V; №6 speak — после can; №10 finish — после must; №14 sing — hear + объект + V; №18 stay — let + объект + V.

Проверка: смотри на слово перед пропуском. Предлог (to, in) обычно требует -ing; модальные can/must/will и make/let/hear — форму без to; manage/expect/promise и прилагательные — to + V.

№9: are used to getting up — «привыкли вставать», а used to get up означало бы «раньше вставали».
№14: в этом наборе ожидается sing; singing тоже возможно, если подчёркивается процесс. №16: dancing; love to dance тоже допустимо, но здесь тренируется -ing.
