Dear teachers,

Would you be so kind to tell me which of the following sentences is right and which is wrong.

1. I would prefer to eat at home rather than go to a restaurant.
2. I would prefer eating at home to going to a restaurant.
3. I prefer driving to walking.
4. I prefer to drive rather than walking.
5. I prefer to drive rather than walk.

I think there is impossible to find a reason for the use of a given form: gerund or infinitive.

Thank you in advance for your efforts.

Regards.

V.
