5. How do you usually feel when you manage to do something difficult Give an example.
Peter uses the words “beautiful”, “nice”, and “difficult” to describe Yaming’s work.
Yaming likes it because it’s relaxing. He even likes how the ink smells.
Yaming’s and Peter’s hobbies were both difficult at the beginning and required lots of practice.
I think this means that starting something new is more difficult than continuing it once you have begun.
Eg: I feel interested. I think English is hard for me. When I started to learn English, I always spent hours practising speaking and writing. And now I am good at English.

Work in pairs to discuss whether each infinitive explains why an action is done (A) or what the object does (B).

A (why)
B (what)

Activity 3: Think and analyse
Who can tell us the function of
“to relax” in the first sentence
It tells us why the speaker plays the flute.
Perfect. And “to ice skate”
It tells us why the speaker went to the sports centre.

For A (adverbials), they usually follow action verbs to show the purpose (e. g. play... to... , go... to... ).
