易混搭配 “used to、be used to” 和 “get used to”

陈小将

虽然搭配 “used to、be used to” 和 “get used to” 都包含 “used to”，但它们的意思和用法却完全不同。“Used to” 用来谈论过去而非现在的动作、习惯或发生过的事情；“be used to (doing) something” 表示 “已经习惯做某事”，也就是说这件事情对你来说是稀松平常的；“get used to (doing) something” 则表示 “变得逐渐习惯做某事”，强调虽然你还没有适应一件事情，但正在努力去适应。参考讲解，做八道测验题，看看你是否掌握了这三个易混搭配之间的区别。
