There is nothing to do but to wait arrival of the day 这句话but后to是有必要的吗?请解释一下

to 可要可不要,看下面解析举例就知道为什么了.
一般说来,介词后接动词通常应是动名词.但是介词but却比较特殊,其后接动词时,可以接不定式,并且这个不定式可以带to也可以不带to：
1.当其前的谓语含有实义动词do(可以是各种形式)时,其后的不定式通常不带to：
She will do anything but play chess.
她除了下棋外什么都愿干.
2.当其前的谓语没有某种形式的实义动词do时,其后的不定式通常要带to：
They had no choice but to obey.
他们别无选择只有服从.
3.当其前含有实义动词do但不是用作谓语时,其后的不定式带不带to均可,但以不带to为多见：
There’s nothing to do but (to) leave.
没有什么事可做,只好离开.
4.在cannot (help) but后习惯上接不带to的不定式：
I cannot (help) but admire his courage.
我不得不佩服他的勇气.

There was nothing to do but wait for his help. there is nothing to do but to do 还是there is nothing to do bu do nothing but do there is nothing to do but do/doing用哪个?举例说 I have nothing to do but wait这句话的意思大神们帮帮忙 do nothing but do there is nothing to do but do/to do用哪个?举例说 there was nothing to do but __ there is nothing much to do in the evening but read 用英语 I could do nothing but wait the rain to stop、、额、stop前面有没有to? There is nothing ---but---down and wait for him to come back 这句话对吗?I can do nothing but wait. He could do nothing but wait for the bus to come he could do nothing but ( )for the bus( ) a.wait;to come b.w
