[重点难点释义](Language Points)
1. “主语+used to+动词原形+其它”。在这个句型结构中used to的含义为“过去常常”。表示过去的习
惯,暗示现在已无此习惯,请看图:
Dave在过去几年中一直在factory(工厂)中工作,但现在他在Supermarket(超市)中工作,所以Dave
used to work in a factory. 隐含的意思是:Dave worked in a factory before but he doesn’t
work
there now.
如果用时间轴表示的话,应该是这样的。
2. 我们可以说I used to work…/She used to have…/they used to be…等等,也就是说used这个词没
有人称的变化,to后面接动词原形。
used tobe
work
have
play etc.
请看例句:
·When I was a child, I used to like chocolate
·I used to read a lot of books but I don’t read much these days.
·Liz has got short hair now but it used to be very long.
Liz现在梳短发,但以前她是长发。
·They used to live in the same street as us, so we often used to see them.
But we don’t
see them very often these days.
他们过去和我们住在同一条街道,所以我们经常能看见他们,但现在我们不能经常见到他们了。
·Ann used to have a piano, but she sold it a few years ago.
Ann过去有一架钢琴,但几年前她把钢琴卖了。
used to的否定形式是I didn’t use to….
·When I was a child, I didn’t use to like tomatoes.
当我还是个孩子时,我不喜欢西红柿。
问句形式是did you use to…?
·Where did you use to live before you came here?
当你来这儿之前你住哪儿?
3. used to这个词组只用于讲述过去,我们不能用use to来讲述现在
·I used to play tennis. These days I play golf.
(不说 I use to play golf.)
·We usually get up early.
(不说We use to get up early)
二、anymore
我们用anymore来表示情况或活动的变化。(We use anymore to show a change in a situation or
activity.)
·She used to live in NewYork, but she doesn’t live there anymore.
如果动词(或动词短语)相同,则第二个动词可省略。(If the Second Verb phrase has the same
verb, you can omit it.)
·She used to live in London, but she doesn’t anymore.
anymore可不与used to连用(You can use anymore without used to)
·She doesn’t live in NewYork anymore.
anymore只能和否定词连用
·We don’t go there anymore.
·They never talk to me anymore.
·No one likes him anymore.
三、still
我们用still来说明某人或某物没有变化。(Use still to show that something or someone has not
changed)
She still lives in Mexico.
still应放在主要动词前面(Use still before the main verb)
He still lives in New Zealand.
still应放在be动词后面。
He is still crazy after all these years.
still 应放在像can, may, should这样的助动词之后
She can still play the piano.
四、频率副词
频率副词(如always)在句中位置不同。(Adverbs of frequency can appear in different
positions in a sentence.)
它们的位置应是:在主要动词之前,在be动词之后,在助动词(will, can, have等)之后,在used to
之前。
·I usually get up at six.
·You were rarely happy. 你很少高兴。
·You will sometimes hear from them.
·I have seldom spoken to her.
·They never used to dance.
·He always used to call her. 五、词语辨析
1. used to和would
①used to和would都可表示过去的习惯或行为,常可换用。
When we were children we used to/would go skatingevery winter. 我们小时候每年冬天都去滑
冰。
②used to含有较强的“今昔对比”的含义,而would无此含义
I do not swim so often as I used to
我不像过去那样常游泳了。(不能用would代替)
He would sometimes work into the night.
以前他常工作到深夜。(不表示现在他不工作到深夜)
③用would时,有时应有时间状语来加以限制,而used to则可无时间状语
He would go to see Mother every vacation.
(那时)他每个假期去看望妈妈
He isn’t what he used to be. 他不再是过去的他。
2. used to do和be used to doing.
①be used to 是“习惯于”某一客观事实和状态,不强调动作,to是介词,后面接名词或动名词,
如:
I am used to the weather here.
我已经习惯于这里的天气了。
He is used to hard work. 他习惯于艰苦的工作。
②get(或become)used to指的是从不习惯到习惯这一过程的转变,另外,它往往包含着克服困难去适
应的意思。
如:You will soon get used to the weather here.
你会习惯于这里的天气的。
In the end, I got used to doing the hard work.
最后,我终于习惯干苦活了。
