师：I am so cool. I can make you addicted to me. Haha, there are too many devil charms beside me. You will all enjoy me. Now, nice. No one can make me go to bed earlier. We are the tallest assassin in the world. Haha, castle, castle. But I'm looking for some killers. Have you seen them? No, no. Could you please help me to find them? Later, all right. All right, let's cooperate. Let me introduce myself first. I am a health detective. Today my task is to find out who is the murderer. Now, there are three murderers for us to find. Okay, now let me take a look. Let's take a look at the crime scene in the picture. Where is the mother? Where is it? Can you find it? Some say smoking, some say junk food. Probably.
Well, whoever you are, you have what it takes to become a detective. But above all, I have collected some secret information from someone. Now read the description to me together. "To choose me is to choose illnesses. It's my job to ruin your lungs. If you are used to me, it's hard for you to live without me." So tell me, who is the measure? Smokey, very polite. Sissy mama, now would you please wait for us? Okay, henny, thank you. "My job is to make people take knees, but my wish is not to make people feet. It's really hard to quit." Okay, very good. You're a rapper. Okay, you're rhyming very good. So let's guess who is the murderer, Zhangpu? Obviously Zhangpu. Now last one, let me read out for you. You need to look at yourselves to find me.
You try to get much from me, but who needs to get tiredness and emptiness? Who is he? Staying up late. Around the block for yourselves. You are all perfect detectives. They are telling smoking, junk food and staying up late. Keep in mind, this is madness. This is madness. Now let's take a look back at the notes we have just received, and please pay special attention to the red parts of the sentences, okay? So the first sentence, what's the function of the red parts? To find, what's the function of it in the sentence? To do, we're not. You can tell me in Chinese. The purpose. And we call it the verbial. Read after me. The verbial. Okay, cover number two.
Yeah, in Chinese, it's 宾语 (binyu), right? In English, we call it object. Subject, obviously subject. Very, very good. So actually, the to - do structure has so many functions in sentences. For example, object, complement, adverbial, predictive, attributive. Alexis, subject. Okay, so do you think the to - do structure is powerful? Yeah, yeah. Exactly. But today we will mainly focus on subjects. Very good. Now, to - do structure as the subject. Let's reflect on the sentence, "To shoot me is to shoot to the ends." Can you summarize the structure of the sentence? At the beginning of the sentence, there is a "to", yes. And we have a verb. Right, labor or sometimes we use a "do" or "does". Do or does? Does, because usually we use singular form. Very good.
Okay, next one, next sentence, "It's my job to ruin your lungs." What's the structure of the sentence? We have an "it", we call it formal subject in English. We call it formal subject and yes, plus what is it, "job". What kind of word is it? A noun. And we got a "to something". Very good. Now, next one, "It's hard for you to live without me." Also, it is plus adjective. Very good. Plus for somebody to do something.
Very good. Now pay attention, sometimes we can also use "of". Somebody. What's the difference? Which one do we use to describe something? For. We use "for" to describe something, while using "of" to describe somebody. Okay. Now the last sentence, huh, I'd like to add, is "It takes or took somebody something to do something". Very good. Now the last point you have to keep in mind is the function when you are describing something. If we use "it is plus noun" or "it is plus adjective", we can express ideas naturally. Huh, why? Your ideas are at the beginning of the sentence. Do you agree? Yeah, perfect. But for the last one, how can we use it? How can we use it? We can use it to present facts. Do you agree? Yeah. Alright.
Now we have all the information collected, right? And we also come to know the feature of the to - do structure now. What can we do next? Let's analyze the clues and collect their evidence now. Take a look at the picture here. We can see a man coughing heavily, right? Yeah. What makes him coughing? Smoking, maybe there are some cigarettes on the table. So we can say, "It's easy for you to find cigarettes in the office." Right? Pay special attention to "it's... to...". So it's for ideas or facts? Ideas. Okay, right. Very good. Now for the next one, how about you, beautiful lady?
生：It takes a long time for us...
师：It takes a long time for us to... You agree? Yes. Perfect. Thank you. Alright. The last evidence, the third element, how about a boy? Yeah, about you.
生：It is uh... it is best to... because the coachman to lose...
师：Perfect. You got it totally. Alright. Thank you. Alright. Thank you. Now the last one.
生：Yeah, you want to... from the office.
师：Very good. Thank you. Now, guys, take a look at the four sentences. What do they have in common?
生：They all use the to - do structure.
师：What is this here? They all use "it" as a formal subject at the beginning of sentences, right? So we can say the to - do structure is really powerful. Very good. Yeah. The second killer, Junk Food. Here is the conversation between the detective HG and Junk Food. Alright. We can see that the junk food refused to admit that he is guilty, right? So, guys, work in pairs. Find your partner, have a discussion and finish the conversation using the to - do structure as subjects. Come on, find, discuss. Because later we will act it out.
生：（两人一组进行讨论）
师：Alright, time is up. The moment of decision now. I would like to invite, how about you here? Your couple, right? Yeah. Let's take your hand. Come on, come on. Come on, show time. Now remember, use emotions, right?
生1：Who is Jay?
生2：Okay, it's just me.
生1：Emotions.
生2：Um...
生1：You take it.
生2：I'm not sad. I bring people happiness.
生1：No, you bring harm. To make people happy is my wish. People love me.
生2：But look at yourself. It is your fault to make us unhealthy.
生1：Come on, it's up to them to choose me.
生2：But it is wrong of you to harm people's health. You are guilty. Are you going to Benny?
生1：The look... that is that. Hahaha. No.
生2：We'll remind people of your harm. Get out of our life right now.
