Omission - I'm afraid I haven't
A: Have you been to church lately?
B: No, I'm afraid ______
1. haven't
2. haven't been
3. haven't been to
4. haven't been to it.
I heard the answer is #1.
Is that question something to do with this question?
A: Do you think Paul will remember your birthday?
B: I ____________. He's very forgetful.
1. expect him not
2. don't expect him
3. don't expect him to
4. expect of him not to
I heard the answer is #3.
It seems there's no relation between the first and the second question because to is omitted in the first and not in the second.
But I find we can take off the verb parts. #1 been ..., and #2 remember.... Am I correct?
B: No, I'm afraid ______
1. haven't
2. haven't been
3. haven't been to
4. haven't been to it.
