Cevap

a)

  1. I don't want to have to refuse.
  2. I hate having to argue to get my way.
  3. I don't seem to be able to stand up for myself.
  4. I enjoy being able to offer people help.

  1. to /tə/ have; to /tə/ refuse
  2. to /tu:w/ argue; to /tə/ get
  3. to /tə/ be; to /tə/ stand
  4. to /tu:w/ offer

When a vowel sound follows to, the /w/ sound is needed to link the vowels, so to is pronounced /tu:w/. Before consonants it's normally pronounced in the weak form /tə/.
