1b) Fill in the gaps

Hi, my name’s Nick. I am keen on collecting toy trains.
I took up this hobby five years ago. Now my collection has more than 120 models.
I am good at fixing some details to make my trains look more realistic.
This hobby helps me see the difference between even very similar objects.
I hope I will turn my hobby into my future job.

Ответы: 1) keen, 2) took, 3) collection, 4) good, 5) hobby, 6) turn.

2a) Open the brackets

1. The girls like listening to this radio station in the evening.
2. Simon enjoys making breakfast for the whole family.
3. He hates going to Rome for a holiday.
4. Emma hates getting up early on Sundays.
5. The children like helping mother to do the washing-up.
6. She enjoys teaching little kids English.

Правило: после enjoy всегда используется форма глагола с окончанием -ing. После like и hate в этом упражнении также ставим -ing.

2b) Add the ending -ing

1. to run — running
2. to swim — swimming
3. to argue — arguing
4. to travel — travelling
5. to have — having
6. to keep — keeping

Правила написания:

• в run и swim удваивается последняя согласная: running, swimming;
• конечная немая e исчезает: argue → arguing, have → having;
• в британском английском: travel → travelling;
• в keep ничего не меняется, просто добавляется -ing.
