Role-play the conversation.
Paul: Hey Roy, the subject for my school project is “Small inventions
that changed the world.” Can you help me think of an invention?
Roy: With pleasure! Let me think ... hmm ... I know! The zipper!
Paul: The zipper? Is it really such a great invention?
Roy: Think about how often it’s used in our daily lives. You can see
zippers on dresses, trousers, shoes, bags ... almost everywhere!
Paul: Well, you do seem to have a point ...
Roy: Of course! I thought about it because I saw a website last week.
The pioneers of different inventions were listed there. For
example, it mentioned that the zipper was invented by
Whitcomb Judson in 1893. But at that time, it wasn’t used
widely.
Paul: Really? So when did it become popular?
Roy: Around 1917.

— Can you help me think of an invention?
— With pleasure! (教材P42)

Well, you do seem to have a point … (教材P42)
1. you do seem to have a point ... 是个强调句,用“助动词do +
谓语动词原形”的结构。
e.g. Do stay for supper! 一定要留下吃晚饭!
He did come here yesterday. 他昨天的确来这儿了。
Do come to my birthday party. 一定要来我的生日聚会。
2. have a point 有道理

For example, it mentioned that the zipper was invented

代词作宾语时,无需用任何介词;另外注意不接双宾语。如:
e.g. Don’t mention this problem this evening.
今晚别提这个问题。
Nobody mentioned the time of this meeting.
谁也没有提到这次会议的时间。
2. 若后接动词,要用动名词,不能用不定式。
