注：① 若要強調從不習慣到習慣的過程，可用 get, become 等代替動詞 be：

He has got used to looking after himself. 他已習慣于自己照顧自己。

② be used to 有時可能是動詞 use 的被動語態結構 (此時意為“被用來”，其中的 to 為不定式符號，其后要接動詞原形)：

A hammer is used to drive in nails. 錘子是用來釘釘子的。

5. used to 與would的用法比較：

(1) 兩者都表示過去的習慣，當表示過去習慣性的動作時，可互換：

When we were children we would [used to] go skating every winter. 我們小時候，每年冬天都去溜冰。

(2) 若表示過去持續的狀態，通常只用used to，不用would：

He used to like you. 他原來還是喜歡你的。

He is not what he used to be.  他已不是從前的他了。

(3) 若要強調過去與現在的對比，也通常只用used to：

I don’t smoke these days, but I used to. 我現在不抽煙，但我以前是抽的。

I used to drive to work but now I cycle. 過去我常駕車上班，但我現在騎自行車。

十、had better 的用法

1. 基本用法特點

其意為“最好”、“應該”，后接動詞原形，與情態動詞should用法相似，其中的had通常縮略為 ‘d：

You’d better get some sleep．你最好去睡一會兒。

We had better go before it rains.                 我們最好在下雨前就去。

2. 如何構成否定式和疑問式

構成否定式時，通常將not置于had better之后(而不是had之后)；而構成疑問式時，則通常將had(而不是had better)置于主語之前：

I’d better not disturb him．我最好別去打擾他。

What had we better do? 我們最好怎么辦?

注：在否定疑問句或反意疑問句中可將 not 與 had  連用：

Hadn’t we better go now? 我們是不是現在就去呢?

3. 后接進行式和完成式動詞

有時后接動詞的進行式，表示最好馬上做某事；也可接完成式動詞，表示最好做完某事或本該做某事而未做某事：

I think I’d better be going．我想我最好還是馬上走。

You’d better be getting your clothes ready. 你最好馬上把衣服準備好。

You had better have done that. 你最好把那事做完。

You had better have stayed here. 你本來應該呆在這兒的。

4. 幾點用法說明

(1) had better 用于提出建議或請求時，并不是一個很客氣委婉的表達，它暗示對方有義務去做某事，因此通常用于長輩對晚輩或上級對下級等，而不宜反過來用。

(2) had best與had better 用法和含義均差不多，但不如had better普通：

You had best get home before midnight．你最好在午夜之前回到家里。

We had best be going．我們最好現在就走。

(3) 有時可省略其中的had：

You better stop arguing．你們最好不要爭論了。

Better not wait for him. 最好不要等他了。

Better say yes, if they ask you. 如果他們問你，你最好說“是”。

(4) 有時為了強調，可將better置于had之前：

"I promise I’ll pay you back." "You better had." “我何證還給你。”“你最好還給我。”
