知识点1
—Mario，you used to be short，didn’t you? 马里，你以前长得很矮，不是吗？
—Yes，I did.是的。
【讲解】used to do表示过去经常的习惯，含有现在不再如此之意。
used to do的否定句多为didn’t use to do；也可用作used not to do，used no 可缩写为usedn’t或usen’t。
used to do的疑问句跟一般动词相同，常为Did...use to do...?
used to do的反意疑问句也用助动词did构成。如：
He used to go fishing on Sunday.他以前常在星期天去钓鱼。
This river used to be clean.这条河以前是干净的。
—Did he use to work into the night? 他以前总是工作到深夜吗？
—Yes，he did.是的。
【例1】按要求答题。
①I once played football.（改为同义句）
I ______ play football.
②She used to be a teacher.（改为一般疑问句）
______ she ______ to be a teacher?
③There ______ a restaurant here.（单项选择）
| A．used to | B．used to be |
| C．used to have | D．used to had |
警示
1．used to 后面接动词原形。
2．There was/were相当于There used to be
【解答】①由于once表示“以前，曾经”，因此答案为used to。②Did，use ③There be句式中使用used to，答案为B。
拓展延伸：
be used to do sth.意为“被用来做……”，属被动语态。如：
A knife is used to cut things.刀子是用来切东西的。
get/be used to doing sth.意思为：习惯做某事。to为介词，后接动名词，而不接动词原形。如：
I’m used to getting up and going to bed early.我习惯于早睡早起。

interest作动词，意思是“人感兴趣”
知识点2 But now I’m more interested in sports.但现在我对体育运动更感兴趣。

归纳延伸：
英语中一些表示情绪性的动词加—ing，表示“令人感到……”，通常指事物，有时也可指人，加—ed，表示人“感到……”，只能指人。如：
frustrating—frustrated exciting—excited amazing—amazed
surprising—surprised terrifying terrified
I’m excited when I hear the exciting news.当我听到那令人激动的消息时，我很激动。
We felt frustrated after we gotthe frustrating result.当我们得到令人沮丧的结果后，我们感到很失望。
