［单元课文重点分析］

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 skating very 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。

　　 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.

　　 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.

　　 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.

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)
