(ask) you about this now.
Mario: Good idea. In fact, I know other lecturers want ____to discuss___ (discuss) similar issues

us if were tired in the morning.

going to bed late.
Mario: I know. It was beyond our control. Nobody likes __studying__ (study) when they are tired.
C. Complete the text with the –ing or to- infinitive form of the verbs in brackets.

It’s sometimes possible to remember a fact, for example, if first of all you stop _to think_

easier if you have learnt it in an organized way. If you are not sure how to do this, try __writing_
(write) brief notes about the text you are reading. Many people find this an effective way of learning.
After all, it’s easy to read something and not understand or remember it, usually because you have
stopped __paying_ (pay) attention.

E-readers have a number of advantages. They are very practical, so they are ideal for people
who like _travelling_ (travel). If you’re abroad, you don’t need _to look for_ (look for) a
bookshop that has books in your language – you can download it as a digital book. In addition
to this, e-readers are private, so people around you can’t __see__ (see) what you’re reading.
Finally, when you finish __reading_(read) a book, you no longer have to find room for it on a
bookshelf.
