Explanation:

• Non-finite verbs are defined as the verbs that can not function as the main verb in the sentence as they do no display the tense. These verbs are neutral in nature(neither past nor present nor future).
• The non-finite verbs are of three types: gerunds, infinitives, participles.
• Gerunds are described as the '-ing' form of the verb that functions as a noun in the sentence. In these sentences, 'interesting and swimming' are examples of gerunds.
• Infinitives are defined as the base form of verbs i.e. 'to + V1' which function as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns in the sentence. 'To take care' and 'to walk' are the infinitives used in these sentences.
• Participles are demonstrated as the form of the verb('verb with '-ing' in present and with '-ed' in past) that function either as an adjective or as a noun in the sentence. 'Looked after'[ is the past participle used in these sentences.
