Used to構造

Used to 的結構

“used to” 構造被用來描述一個曾經發生過但已經結束且現在不再發生的習慣、狀態或事件。這個構造通常帶有比較過去和現在的意思。

公式 

肯定句 S + used to + V(inf – 原形)I used to go to school by bus, now I go by bike. 
大致翻譯:以前我坐公車上學,現在我騎摩托車。
解釋:搭公車的行為只發生在過去,現在已經不再這樣了。
否定句S + didn’t use to + V(inf – 原形)John didn’t use to clean the house everyday when he lived alone. 
大致翻譯:John 以前一個人住的時候不常每天打掃房子。
解釋:談論約翰過去的習慣就是他不常每天打掃房子。
疑問句Did + S + use to + V(inf – 原形)Did he use to come home this late? 
大致翻譯:他以前經常像這麼晚回家嗎?
解釋:詢問他過去回家晚的習慣。

Used to用法 

“used to” 構造常用於描述過去發生過的動作、習慣、狀態或事件,且這些現在已經不再發生。有時 “used to” 還用來強調過去與現實之間的差異。因此,“used to” 通常只用於過去式,特別是過去簡單式。

例如:

  • My grandmother used to tell me stories about her youth. (我奶奶曾經給我講過她年輕時的故事)
  • I used to love spicy food, but now I can’t handle it. (我曾經喜歡吃辣的食物,但現在已經不能吃了)

學生們需要注意的一點是關於 “used to” 構造的:當句子中did” 時,我們用 “use to”;而當句子中沒有 “did” 時,我們用 “used to”。

Be used to + Ving構造

Be used to 的結構

公式

肯定句 S + be + used to + V_ing/NounWe are used to the working time at this company. 
大致翻譯:我們已經習慣了在這家公司工作的時間。
否定句S + be + not + used to + V_ing/NounShe was not used to the noise from our radio, so we always had to turn it off when she stayed at home. 
大致翻譯:她不習慣我們的收音機噪音,所以她在家的時候我們總是關掉它。
疑問句 Be + S + used to + V_ing/NounAre you used to getting up at 6 a.m every day? 
大致翻譯:你已經習慣每天早上6點起床了嗎?

Used to + Ving用法

“Be used to” 構造常用於描述某人已經多次做某件事,已經習慣並且對該事物也有了經驗而且不再陌生。

例如:

  • They are used to the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside (他們已經習慣了鄉村的寧靜)。
  • I am used to the heavy traffic during rush hour (我已經習慣了高峰時段的交通擁堵)。

Get used to + Ving/N構造 

Get used to 的結構

注意:“Get” 將根據句子的主語和時態像普通動詞一樣變化。

公式 

肯定句S + get + used to + V_ing/NShe got used to exercising every morning. 
大致翻譯:她已經習慣了每天早上運動。
否定句S + 助動詞 + not + used to + V_ing/NHe didn’t get used to eating with a fork, did you? 
大致翻譯:他還不習慣用叉子吃飯嗎?
疑問句助動詞 + S + get + used to + V_ing/NIs he getting used to living his current life? 
大致翻譯:他已經習慣現在的生活了嗎?

get used to用法

get used to用法挺簡單的,常用於描述某人逐漸習慣某事或某個問題的過程。

例如:

  • After living in the city for a year, he finally got used to the noise (在城市生活一年後,他最終習慣了噪音)。
  • After a few weeks, she got used to the rhythm of the dance (幾個星期後,她已經習慣了舞蹈的節奏)。

使用 used to 時常見的錯誤

在使用英文中的 “used to” 構造時,使用者通常會犯以下幾個錯誤:

  • 不使用 “to be”: “Used to” 是 “used to be” 的簡寫,所以不要忘記在 “used to” 後面使用 “to be”。例如:“I used to be a teacher” 而不是 “I used to a teacher”。
  • 動詞使用錯誤: “Used to” 只用於原形動詞,不能與其他形式的動詞一起使用,例如帶有 ‘to’ 的原形動詞或帶有‘ing’的原形動詞。例如:“I used to play soccer” 而不是“I used to playing soccer”。
  • 時態使用錯誤:“Used to” 只用於過去,不用於未來或現在。例如:“I used to live in New York”而不是 “I am used to living in New York”。
  • 在 “used to” 後使用 “will”:“Will” 是未來時態,不能用在 “used to” 後。例如:“I used to go to the gym every day, but now I don’t” 而不是 “I used to go to the gym every day, but now I will not”。
