We use the -ing form of a verb after certain verbs (e.g. like, enjoy, stop, begin, finish, miss, continue, hate, love, prefer, suggest, imagine, mind, start).

Ou seja, alguns verbos, quando seguidos por outro verbo, exigem que o segundo esteja com ING.

d) My parents ____________ DVDs. (love / watch)

Hi, Sarah!
How are you? I had a great holiday, thanks. Mexico is a wonderful country and I can't stop talking about it. I miss visiting lots of new places, but it's nice here at home, and I love having a hot shower every day! 
I've just finished reading my 200 (!) emails. I had one from Gemma. She's suggested meeting on Friday - with you and Helen. Can you come? Guess what? Helen's just got engaged! I can't imagine getting married at the moment. Can you?

See you on Friday.
