2 表示过去的例行活动或方式。这样使用时,不是将过去与现在对比。仅仅描述某人在某一定时期的例行活动。这时常常描述一连串的动作。这里used to可以由would取代(但would不能代替如在上面1中所提到的、表示已经中断的习惯的usedto)。这种情况下的used to总是不重读的。
Tom and Ann were a young married couple.Every morning Tom used to kiss Ann and set off for work.Ann used to stand at the window and wave goodbye.In the evening she used to welcome him home and ask him to tell her about his day.
汤姆和安是一对年轻的夫妇。每天早上汤姆都要亲吻安,然后再去上班。安总是要站在窗前挥手送别。傍晚的时候,安总要迎接汤姆回家并要他告诉她一天的情况。
如果用would就会写成:
Every morning Tom would kiss Ann and set off for work. Ann would stand at the window and wave goodbye
每天早上汤姆总是亲吻了安,然后再去上班。安总是要站在窗前挥手送别
注意:used没有现在式。因此要表示现在的习惯或例行活动时,我们必须用所需动词的现在式。
