知识点拨
1.Mario used to be short.
(1)used to+动词原形 表示“过去经常;以前常常(现在已经不这样了)”。其否定式和疑问式可借助于did,也可不用did。例如:
Did you use to play football?/Used you to play football?
你过去踢足球吗?
He didn’t use to smoke./He usedn’t to smoke。
他过去不抽烟。
(2)be used to + sth./doing sth.表示“习惯于……”,其中to是介词,be也可以用get等替换。例如:
Students are/get used to getting up early.
学生习惯于早起。
(3)be used to+动词原形 表示“被用来做……”,这是use的被动形式,其中to是不定式符号。例如:
A computer is used to store information.
电脑可以用来储存信息。
