Unit2. 7.8
- 1. Unit 2
- 3. Information Why is it important? September 2nd, 1966 University Teresa L.A. My Crazy Life Frida Salma Hayek was born International Relations Popular TV soap Carrer in Hollywood First big break Huge success in U.S. 1 2 3 4 5 6
- 4. What is the meaning of? Kicked out of school Dropped out of school Leftschoolbeforecompletingstudies Expelledfromschool Got a big break The film bombed The film wasveryunsuccessful Had a greatopportunity
- 5. What kind of verb tense is used in the texts? SIMPLE PAST Her parents sent her to a private Catholic school in Louisiana. …she used to misbehave constantly… Hayek wasn’t used to going against her parents’ wishes. …a job in a local theater, which didn’t pay much… Although Hayek was used to considerable success… USED TO + VERB WAS USED TO + ING VERB SIMPLE PAST WAS USED TO + NOUN
- 6. When do we use Simple Past?
- 7. When do we use “used to”?
- 8. When do we use WAS USED TO? My mom always told me to do exercise and so I was used to jumping. But now that I live alone I do not do exercise anymore
- 9. When do we use WAS USED TO? This person was used to cassette tapes BUT now he has to use something else
- 10. It's easy to confuse used to do and be used to. Both forms look alike, but they have very different meanings and structures. First let's look at used to do, orused to + verb. When I say I used to do something, I mean that I did something regularly in the past which I no longer do now. For example, "When I was a child, I used to fight with my siblings, but now we get along." We can also use used to do to talk about something that was true in the past but is not true now, for example, "Drinking alcohol used to beillegal in the U.S." *In other words, drinking alcohol was illegal in the past, but it is no longer illegal.
- 11. Be used to means something different. If you were used to something, you were accustomed to it. It was normal or usual for you. Be used to is always followed by a noun or gerund (verb ending in ing). For example, I can say I was used to the rain, or I can say that I was used to staying up late.
- 12. Let’s see if you get the point… When I lived in Canada In 2002 Yesterday Three days ago At Christmas This morning Last winter At midnight Last night On my last birthday WHICH PHRASES GO WITH SIMPLE PASTAND WHICH ONES GO WITH USED TO? Can we use a phrase in BOTH cases?
- 13. Let’s play a game! At nine o’clock Last summer When I lived in Mexico On my last birthday This afternoon In 2009 Yesterday Two days ago At Christmas time At midnight When I was a child
