3. Tell the students to put the following words into sentences. They can discuss with their desk mates if necessary. After the exercise is done, try to find out the difference between sentence 3 and sentence 1&2. 1.talking, holes, no, mends 2. talking, talking, to, to, him, a, wall, is 3. it, talking, to, him, is, 可以用it充当形式主语，把真正的主语V-ing结构放在句尾。形成“It+be+名词/形容词+V-ing”句式。但是这种句式有一定限制，作表语的只能是某些形容词或少数名词，如fun，useful，useless，no good，no use，worthwhile等。

动词-ing形式可以做动词的宾语，还可以做介词的宾语。不是所有动词都可以跟V-ing形式做宾语。

常跟动词ing作宾语的动词歌诀:

avoid，miss，postpone 建议完成多联系，

advise，finish，practise

喜欢想象禁不住，

enjoy，imagine，can’t help

承认否定与嫉妒，

admit，deny，envy 逃避冒险莫原谅，

Ask students to finish Exercise 3 on Page 13 and while doing it, think about this question: in respect to those words that can followed by both –ing and to do, what it the difference of them? 一些动词跟V-ing做宾语与跟to do 做宾语的含义差别不大。但是另外一些动词如forget, go on, mean, regret, remember, stop, try, be used to, can’t help，be afraid (of) 后跟动名词和跟不定式区别较大，须注意。

(1) forget, regret, remember后跟动名词，动名词表示已经发生的动作；后跟不定式表示将要发生的动作。
