Teaching aims:

After this class, the students will be able to

1. tell the differences between “to do” and “doing”; 2.

express their opinions using the verb forms; 3.

use non-finite in exercises correctly. Teaching procedures:

Step 1 lead in

Give the students a sentence “Laughter is good for our health. So l love comedies. With everything prepared, I will perform in the comedy to be put on this weekend. Acting in a drama will be an unforgettable experience. ” and ask “What are the functions of the parts in red?”

They are: object complement, attributive and subject. What is the grammatical term for the three verb forms? —non-finite

Step 2 Explanation

1.

Ask the students to fill in blanks to check how well they know about non-finite. (1) In my opinion, it is important _________(learn) English well. (2) The play ___________(direct) by Tom is very interesting. (3) Before the New Year, we had our house __________(clean). (4) It is no good ___________(play) too much computer game. (5) The library ___________(build) now will be completed next month. Keys: to learn; directed; cleaned; playing; being built

2.

We can see that both “to do” and “doing” can be used as subject, but is there any differences between the two?

The to infinitive is often used as the subject of a sentence. When we talk about a general idea, we sometimes use verb-ing as the subject.

In the following sentence pattern, we use “to do”

as the subject: It is + adj. + (for sb.) to do But in the pattern “It is no use/ no good doing” we use “doing” as the subject.

Eg. It is no use copying all the words down.

It is no good arguing with him.

3. Compare the sentences and find out the difference between “v-ed”

and “v-ing”

as attributives. (1) The case belonging to Tom looks very strange. (2) The box wrapped in colored paper looks strange.

(1) The movie to be issued next month is said to be very interesting. (2) The book published last month is an interesting one.

Conclusion:

When we use non-finite as attributives: v-ed --passive meaning / complete action v-ing –

active meaning/ continuous action to do–

action that will happen in the future

Practice

The building _______________ (build) next year will be a new school.

The building ___________________ (build) now will be a new school.

The building _________________ (build) last year is a new school now.

(to be built; being built; built)

4．Study the following sentences and tell the difference between “(to) do”, “doing”“done” as object complement. (PPT12-14) (1) We saw him dance in the street yesterday.

When I passed him, I heard him singing.

I found him hurt in the accident. (2) The boss had him carry out the difficult task.

He had the little boy waiting for three hours.

We had the job finished on time. Conclusion 1 to do—an action that has finished (the whole process) doing—an action that is taking place done—an action with passive meaning Conclusion 2

We use object complement after certain verbs: feel, hear, notice, listen to, see, observe, smell, watch, have, leave, etc Conclusion 1 is also fit in the following structure: With + n. + object complement

Practice (Use the proper form of the verb “solve”)

With a lot of problems _______________, the boss is worried. With a lot of problems _______________, the boss is very happy. With a lot of experts _______________ the problems for him, the boss is relaxed. (to solve; solved; solving)
