九年級(jí)新目標(biāo)（go for it ）－ Unit 2。I used to be afraid of the dark .
(Section A.1a)
1. used to do sth “過去常常”（表過去習(xí)慣性動(dòng)作或狀態(tài)，暗示現(xiàn)在已不再如此，既可作情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，又可作實(shí)義動(dòng)詞。）
e.g. He used to go swimming on Sundays ,didn’t / usedn’t he ? ( 反義疑問 )
否定式：used not to do 或didn’t use to do
e.g. He used not to play basketball .= He didn’t use to play basketball.（他以前不打籃球）
一般疑問式：Did …use to ? 或 Used …to ?
e.g. Did you use to have long hair ? = Used you have to have long hair ?
辨析： be used to doing sth“習(xí)慣于做某事” e.g. He’s used to getting up early .
be used to do “被用來做…” e.g. This room is used to be a living room .
be used for ( doing)… “被用作…（目的，用途）” e.g. Wood can be used for making paper .
be used by… “被某人使用” e.g. French is used by Frenchmen .
比較： used to do& would do
① used to和would都可表示過去的習(xí)慣或行為，常可換用。
e.g. They would often hike into the mountains .= They used to hike into the mountains .
② used to含有較強(qiáng)的“今昔對(duì)比”的含義，而would無此含義
e.g. I do not swim so often as I used to我不像過去那樣常游泳了。（不能用would代替）
He would sometimes work into the night. 以前他常工作到深夜。（不表示現(xiàn)在他不工作到深夜）
③用would時(shí)，有時(shí)應(yīng)有時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)來加以限制，而used to則可無時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)
e.g. He would go to see Mother every vacation. （那時(shí)）他每個(gè)假期去看望媽媽
He isn’t what he used to be. 他不再是過去的他。
