Fill in the blanks below with either 'to make' or 'to do'
Remember to conjugate the verbs appropriately
Polly: Can't you anything right, Jean? I told you sure my telephone was working for the conference call later this afternoon!
Jean: But Miss Polly, I am my job as best I can. I am a man, not a machine.
Polly: But your job is to fix the machines, not to sit around nothing!
Jean: Oh la la. Please don't yell. It hurts my ears and my feelings.

1 do: We use the verb 'to do' here to indicate the idea of performing an action. This is the primary use of the verb 'to do'. Here we use the infinitive form of the verb (without 'to') following the auxiliary 'can't'. Polly is expressing her frustration with Jean because of his inability to do things correctly.
2 to make: 'To make sure of something' is to verify something. We must use the verb 'to make' in this construction. We use the full infinitive form of the verb (with 'to') following the conjugated verb 'I told'.
3 doing: The expression 'to do one's job' is formed with the verb 'to do'. This expression has a few meanings: in the imperative voice (Do your job!) it is an instruction to work, or work harder. Jean's statement 'I am doing my job as best I can' expresses that he is working as well as he can at his job. We use the progressive form of the verb here to indicate that Jean is in the act of 'doing his job', and that this is an action in progress. The auxiliary 'am' is followed by a verb in the 'ING' form.
4 doing: This construction requires the verb 'to do'. 'To do' is being used here to indicate the action of 'doing' something (or nothing). Polly is criticizing Jean for being lazy or not doing his job. 'To do nothing' indicates the idea of being lazy and inactive. We use the progressive form of the verb 'doing' here.
