Mrs. Anne Sterling did not think of the risk she was taking when she ran through a forest after two men. They had rushed up to her while she was having a picnic at the edge of a forest with her children and tried to steal her handbag. In the struggle, the strap broke and, with the bag in their possession, both men started running through the trees. Mrs. Sterling got so angry that she ran after them. She was soon out of breath, but she continued to run. When she caught up with them, she saw that they had sat down and were going through the contents of the bag, so she ran straight at them. The men got such a fright that they dropped the bag and ran away. ?The strap needs mending,‘ said Mrs. Sterling later, ?but they did not steal anything.‘

Part 3 Grammar
一、动名词
（1）动名词还可以用于动词+介词之后
We are looking forward to his coming. 我们盼望着他的到来。
（2）在start，begin， continue等后面，既可以用不定式又可以用动名词，区别不大 I began to learn/ learning English two years ago. 我两年前开始学英语。
（3）在love，like，prefer等动词后面，用不定式和动名词意义有所区别。带不定式时常表示特定的未
来的事件（如正准备做某事或建议做某事），带动名词形式时则表示目前正在进行中的活动或一般的行为。在prefer…to…结构中则只能用动名词 I ?d like to watch TV. 我（现在）想看电视。（特定） I like watching TV. 我喜欢看电视。（一般行为）
（4）在need，want之后，动名词形式具有被动的含义，相当于被动的不定式 The windows need cleaning. 这些窗子该擦了。（=need to be cleaned）
