A Place to Visit
Hi Mario,
Baños de Agua Santa is on of the most popular destinations in Ecuador. It’s located in Tungurahua
province. Visitors come from all over the world. The reason for this is that Baños has one of the
most beautiful settings you can ever find. It is surrounded by lush forested mountains, beautiful
rivers, water falls, and as its name suggests, hot springs. The area has a very nice subtropical
climate and produces citrus, fruits, peaches, grapes, and sugar cane. In relation to activities, you
can have good trekking possibilities in the area, including one to the crater of the volcano, Altar. If
you need trekking or climbing information, ask at the cafes at the bus station. The maps are very
cheap. Apart from relaxing, walking is the most popular activity in Baños. The Agoyán Falls are,
perhaps, the nearest major attraction. There are buses to and from the centre of town. Love,
Mary

LESSON 3: LIKE – LOVE + ING
GRAMMAR:

• I like getting up early. or I like get up early.
• I love meeting people. or I love to meet people.
B) In British English, there is sometimes a difference between “I like doing and I like to do”
• Like + Verb ing means (enjoy it).

• Do you like cooking? (= do you enjoy it?)
• I like living here. (= enjoy it)
C) I like to do something means I think it is good or right to do it.
• I like to clean my bedroom as often as possible. (= it means that it is a good thing to do, it
doesn’t mean that I enjoy it)
• Mary likes people to be on time.
D) Love + gerund is used to show that something enchants us.
• We love cooking.
• I love dogs.
• She loves listening to music.
