- Bob and Dave / Martha and Sally listening stories become their own dialogue activities; the What-Didn't-You-Hear questions REFERENCE them (the whole passage no longer sits inside the question prompt) - Brutus the Cat: the full story is a dialogue activity, and the follow-up questions REFERENCE it (testers had to answer from memory) - vocab tags moved to the first line that actually teaches the word (gate, dog/cat/bird, run/climb inflections, sky) - long read-only paragraph lines split into sentence-sized cards (airports, circle definitions, winter yard) - self-study wording: removed classroom "this week" phrasing Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

$GRAMMAR Use ... For Doing Something
|
|
ID: l4-s12
|
|
INTRO: This part is about saying what things are for. Here's the first pattern — use something FOR doing something.
|
|
|
|
When you want to say what a thing is for, use **use** + the thing + **for** + an **-ing** word:
|
|
|
|
{We use a knife for cutting meat.}
|
|
{We use a cup for drinking coffee.}
|
|
{We use a camera for taking pictures.}
|
|
|
|
With **he**, **she**, or **it**, the verb takes -s: {He uses a knife for cutting meat.}
|
|
|
|
| Subject | Verb | Object | Preposition | Gerund | Object |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| I / You / We / They | use | a knife | for | cutting | meat. |
