中级美国英语used to 的用法
一.本课要点及示例
今天我们要练习两个词组, 一个是 used to, u-s-e-d t-o, used to, 另外一个是动加上to, t-o, to 再加上动词, 也就是 like to do 和 want to go 等等的动词短语.首先请你听一段对话, 内容是说 Henry 跟他表妹 Susan 在谈做运动. 我们先把 这段对话用正常速度念一遍, 请你注意正确的发音跟语调的抑扬顿挫.
M: Susan, what do you do for exercise?
F: I go swimming once a week.
M: I used to swim in high school, but I don't have time anymore.
F: That's too bad. Exercise is really important.
M: I know. I'm getting a little fat. I didn't use to be this heavy.
F: Well, I'm going swimming tonight. Do you want to go with me?
M: Okay. I really need to get in shape again.
现在我们把这段对话用慢速度再念一遍, 请注意听.
M: Susan, what do you do for exercise?
F: I go swimming once a week.
M: I used to swim in high school, but I don't have time anymore.
F: That's too bad. Exercise is really important.
M: I know. I'm getting a little fat. I didn't use to be this heavy.
F: Well, I'm going swimming tonight. Do you want to go with me?
M: Okay. I really need to get in shape again.
现在我们把刚才那段会话里包含了今天要学的语法, 也就是有 used to 跟有动词加上 to 再加上动词的句子挑出来用慢速度再念一遍给你听.
M: I used to swim in high school.
M: I didn't use to be this heavy.
F: Do you want to go with me?
M: I really need to get in shape again.
二. USED TO
首先我们练习 used to 的用法. 这个词组是表示过去常常做一件事而现在不再做了.
下面我们用 used to 跟在上一课里学过的字作句子; 每个句子念两遍, 请你注意听, 同时, 在念第二遍的时候也请你跟着说.
M: Henry used to wear old gloves.
F: Henry used to wear old gloves.
M: He used to sit next to me in school.
F: He used to sit next to me in school.
M: Susan used to drink a lot of milk.
F: Susan used to drink a lot of milk.
M: She used to live far from the store.
F: She used to live far from the store.
M: Henry and Kate used to go to small parties.
F: Henry and Kate used to go to small parties.
M: They used to go out to eat.
F: They used to go out to eat.
下面我们来作换字练习. 先由老师念一个有 used to 这个词组的句子, 接着老师念一个短语, 学生就把这个短语换进句子里. 现在先举个例子:
M: I used to swim in high school.
M: to play basketball
F: I used to play basketball in high school.
好, 现在我们开始. 在学生做练习的时候, 请你也一起做.
M: I used to swim in high school.
M: to play basketball
F: I used to play basketball in high school.
M: to play volleyball
F: I used to play volleyball in high school.
M: to exercise
F: I used to exercise in high school.
M: to run
F: I used to run in high school.
好了, 现在我们看一看怎么样把 He used to swim in high school. 变成问句. 在这个句子变成问句的时候必须用did, d-i-d, did 开头,于是这句话就变成了Did he use to swim in high school? 再举一个例子: 把 She used to exercise in high school. 这句话变成问句, 就要这样说: Did she use to exercise in high school?
现在我们来做练习. 由老师念一个有 used to 这个词组的句子,叫学生把这些句子改为问句. 现在请你注意听.
M: He used to swim in high school.
F: Did he use to swim in high school?
M: She used to play basketball in high school.
F: Did she use to play basketball in high school?
M: You used to play volleyball in high school.
F: Did you use to play volleyball in high school?
M: They used to exercise in high school.
F: Did they use to exercise in high school?
M: Henry used to run in high school.
F: Did Henry use to run in high school?
现在我们换一个方法作练习.由老师念一个句子,请你用where, w-h-e-r-e, where这个字, 把句子改成问句. 首先还是举个例子:
M: He used to swim in a river.
F: Where did he use to swim?
好, 现在我们正式开始. 在你把句子改为问句之后, 请听正确答案.
M: He used to swim in a river.
F: Where did he use to swim?
M: She used to work in the factory.
F: Where did she use to work?
M: They used to play volleyball in their backyard.
F: Where did they use to play volleyball?
M: Susan used to run in the park.
F: Where did Susan use to run?
现在我们再换一个方式来做练习. 先由老师用 when, w-h-e-n, when这个字, 问一个有 used to 这个词组的问句, 接着老师提出一个说明时间的词组, 请你用时间词组来回答问题. 首先举个例子:
M: When did he use to get up?
M: at seven o'clock
F: He used to get up at seven o'clock.
现在我们正式开始. 在你回答之后, 还是请你听我们的正确答案.

三.动词 + TO + 动词
刚才我们练习了怎么用 used to 这个词组, 现在我们来学习动词加上 to, t-o, to再加上动词的用法. 首先请你听一个句子: I like to play volleyball. 这个句子有两个动词like 和play. 这两个动词是由 to, 这个字联在一起的, to play volleyball 就是 like 这个动词的宾语. 再举一个例子: She likes to listen to music. 这个句子的宾语就是 to listen to music.
现在我们来练习这类句子. 练习的内容都是说亨利到了周未喜欢在家做些什么.
每个句子我们念两遍, 在念第二遍的时候请你跟着念.

F: Henry likes to cook his own dinner on weekends.
M: Henry likes to make fancy dishes on weekends.
F: Henry likes to make fancy dishes on weekends.
