    Grammar Point want / like / love / hate / thinkwant / like / love / hate / think
    • These verbs belong to a group known as stative verbs because they describe a state rather than an action (although think can describe either an action or a state). Stative verbs are not usually used in the progressive tenses. However, it is becoming more common for some stative verbs to be used with progressive tenses. Stative verbs such as want, like, love, hate and think are sometimes used in informal language to describe a state at a particular moment, or a state that continues for a period of time:
      • Why are you wanting a new phone when your current one works perfectly well?为什么你想要一部新手机，而你现在的手机工作得很好？
      • What shall we do tonight? I’m thinking bowling.今晚我们做什么？我在想保龄球。

      Other stative verbs that can be used this way include prefer, remember, taste and understand
