A poster is any large piece of paper which hangs from a wall or other such surface.

3. I’m gradually getting used to things.

我渐渐习惯了这些事情。

句1是used to do sth. 是“过去常常怎么样/做什么”的意思。其中used可以把它看作是个过去式，那么在变成否定句和疑问句时，我们要借did帮忙，而且注意did后要放原形。所以这句话我们可以变成: I didn’t use to be afraid of the dark. 我过去不常常怕黑。Did you use to be afraid of the dark? 你过去常常怕黑吗？

句2：be used to do sth.　 be used for doing sth.　 这两个用法都表示某物被用来干什么。注意前者to后要放动词原形。后者介词for 后要用动词的-ing形式。比如例句也可以改成：Light bulbs are used to see in the dark. 否定句和疑问句就是在be动词上动脑筋，used不变。我们把句2变成否定句，就是： Light bulbs are not used for seeing at night. 变成一般疑问句即是： Are light bulbs used for seeing at night?

句3：be/get used to doing sth. 习惯于做某事。注意这里的to是个介词，所以后面的动词一定要加-ing。be used to doing sth. 在句中做谓语时，变否定句和疑问句都是在be动词上动脑筋，used不变。get used to doing sth. 在句中做谓语时，变否定句和疑问句要借do/does帮忙。

5　 it is + adj.(形容词)+ for sb.+ to do sth.

对某人来说做某事怎么样

It is difficult for me to practice the violin every day.

对我来说，每天练习弹小提琴很困难。

在这里，to do sth. 是真实的主语，it是个形式主语，所以在翻译时要把真实的主语放前面来，it不要翻译

2. Light bulbs are used for seeing at night.

电灯是被用来晚上照明的。

1. I used to be afraid of the dark.

我过去常常怕黑。

1. be supposed to do sth.

被期望做某事，应该做某事

肯定句/否定句/疑问句，一般现在时/一般过去时，这样的变化都体现在be动词上。请看例句：

Japanese are supposed to bow when they meet people for the first time.

I am not supposed to bow, I am supposed to shake hands when I meet people for the first time.

I was supposed to come at 7:00, but I came at 8:00.

2　 point 的用法

point at sb.　 指着某人

It’s not polite to point at others.　

用手指着别人是不礼貌的。

point + 名词/代词　 削尖(铅笔)，增加……的力量

他将了个故事以增强他的说服力。

come to the point 到紧要关头，到达要点

When it came to the point, he refused his help.

point out 指出，使注意

to the point 中肯

回答得简明扼要。

3…should have arrived…

这是should have + 过去分词的用法，表示过去本该做某事，但实际上却没做。如果是shouldn’t have + 过去分词，表示过去本不该做某事，那么意味着已经做了。

You are right. I should have thought of that.

你说得对，我本应该想到这一点。

It’s sunny all year round here. I shouldn’t have taken an umbrella with me.　　 这里一年四季天晴。我本不该带伞的。
