Worksheet Instructions:

Many of Don's students have a problem with (1) "I like..." and (2) "I'd like..." (= "I would like..."). These two things are NOT the same. examples (= ex.): 1. "I like to speak English with my friends." = "NOW I speak English with my friends. I like it. It's good." 2. "I'd like to speak English with my friends." = "I would like to speak English with my friends." = "I want to speak English with my friends IN THE FUTURE." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. A: What do you like to do in your English class? B: I like to talk to other students and the teacher. [I do it now.] 2. A: What would you like to do more in your English class? (= What do you want to do more in your English class?) B: I'd like to practise writing more. [in the future] (= I would like to practise writing more. = I want to practise writing more.) NOTE: "I'd like..." and "I would like..." are more polite than "I want ..." (ex. "Please do it." is more polite than "Do it.") ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
