Here’ssomeonetalkingaboutlivinginLondon，butwhat’smissing?“I_________livinginLondon.It’sjustsocosmopolitan.Idoubtthere’samoreexcitingplacetolive.”A)love，B)amloving你选择哪一个答案呢？想一下，选好后往下翻。 LOVE is a state verb. It describes a feeling， and we don’t normally use verbs like this in the continuous form. So the answer was A!“I LOVE living in London. It’s just so cosmopolitan. I doubt there’s a more exciting place to live.”So， do you love living in your town or city? Tell us why!Here are some more state verbs. Remember that we don’t usually use these in continuous forms， but you might hear people using them in continuous sentences in informal contexts.They’re usually used to talk about attitudes， thoughts， senses or belonging. state verb 表示状态动词。英语中的动词就其词汇意义来说可分为动作动词(Activity verb)和状态动词(State verb)。动作动词强调主语在做的动作，而状态动词强调主语所处的状态，状态动词通常不用于进行时态。例如: The girl is putting on a red coat. 那个女孩正在穿一件红色外套。(穿的动作正在发生， put为动作动词)。 We have a second-hand car. 我们有一辆二手车。 (have为状态动词)。
