Почему именно так: после предлогов of, on используется герундий с окончанием -ing: afraid of leaving, tired of working, insisted on moving. После enjoy и can't stand также употребляется герундий: enjoys walking, enjoyed listening, can't stand waiting. После want, would like (I'd like) и в конструкции It's difficult... нужен инфинитив с to: to get, to send, to concentrate. После prefer возможны и reading, и to read, но в данном упражнении подходит reading.
