6．表达喜欢与不喜欢
在英语中，表达喜欢或不喜欢有很多方法，不同的方法反映了不同的程度。
如果你爱某样东西，可以说I love...
I love eating ice-cream.
I love travel.
如果你很喜欢某样东西，可以说Be fond of; I like
She’s fond of Chinese food.
I like swimming very much.
如果你喜欢某样东西，可以说I like...
He quite likes going to the cinema.
I like cooking.
如果你既不喜欢也不讨厌某样东西，可以 说I don’t mind...
I don’t mind doing the housework.
I don’t mind walking to work.
如果你不喜欢某样东西，可以说I don’t like...
She doesn’t like cooking very much.
I dislike wasting time.
如果你很不喜欢某样东西，可以说I can’t bear..., I can’t stand..., I hate...
I don’t like sport at all.
He can’t stand his boss.
She can’t bear the noise from the street.
I hate being disturbed when I am working.
He detests being late.
She loathes celery.
记住：dislike这个词比较正规，fond of多用于和别人谈论食品。而一般用like的话，则要跟名词或动名词， 如:I like something or like doing something. very much 或a lot这类副词要跟在名词后面。如：
I like reading very much, 不是 I like very much reading.
下面是更多的一些例子：
