25. To speak habitually of the “truly needy” is gradually instilling the notion that many of those who are just called “needy” actually have adequate resources; such a conclusion is unwarranted.
(A) To speak habitually of the “truly needy” is gradually instilling the notion
(B) To speak habitually of the “truly needy” is instilling the notion gradually
(C) To speak habitually of the “truly needy” is gradually to instill the notion
(D) Speaking habitually of the “truly needy” is to instill the gradual notion
(E) Speaking habitually of the “truly needy” is instilling the gradual notion

I know the answer should be C, considering "format consistency" and the "position of the word 'graudaully'".

But I'm not so sure the difference between " doing sth."and "to do sth.", I think both are Ok in this question.

I want to know the Gammar rule of "doing sth. v.s to do sth." in Gmat.

Can anybody help answer systematiclly?

Thanks in advance.

Mike 1999, your words mean nothing.Don't reply that way again.

[face=Arial]供参考.

Doing sth. 在做主语时和To do sth.的区别在于:
doing sth.是指实际发生的重复行为. 例如: Taking a stroll around the park every Sunday is the old man's habit.
to do sth. 是将来要发生的或可能发生的行为. 例如: To date with Miss funny is to have fun with great pleasure.[/face]

Thank you, lewis.

I am also confused to distinguish "doing sth " from "to do sth."
