to do 是动词不定式,用于一般时态下的陈述句,如:You have to do your job perfectly. 而 doing 有两种用法,一是动词 ing 形式,相当于给句子润色,如:Everyone doing their jobs pretty well in this company. 二是表述现在进行时态,如:Sorry ! I can't. I'm doing my paper work right now.
区别取决于谓语动词,有的动词带不定式,有的带动名词,需要记忆,但有些有规律。 1. 表示要去做某事,后面带不定式,比如want, decide等。I want to visit Tom. They decide to buy this dog. 2. 表示喜爱,接动名词,不如Tom likes playing football. She loves dancing.
