b. Would表示反复发生的动作。如果某一动作没有反复性,就不能用 would,只能用 used to。例如:
(9) And from that day on, as soon as the table was cleared and the dishes were gone. Mother would disappear into her sewing room to practice.
从那天起,只要碗盘撤掉、饭桌一清理干净,妈妈就马上躲进做针线活的房间练习起来。(具有反复性)
(10)I used to live in Beijing. 我过去住在北京。(没有反复性)
c. Used to表示过去经常性或习惯性的动作或状态现在已经结束,would则表示有可能再发生。如:
(11)People used to believe that the earth was flat.
过去,人们总以为地球是扁平的。(现在已不再这样认为)
(12)He would go to the park as soon as he was free.
过去,他一有空就去公园。(现在有可能再去)
注意:used to的否定式和疑问句:
(13)过去我不喜欢歌剧。
I used not to like opera.
I usednt to like opera.
I didnt use to like opera.
(14)过去你喜欢歌剧吗?
used you to like opera?
Did you use to like opera?
(15)Didnt you use to like opera? 你过去不喜欢歌剧吗?
