Warming up by learning “used to ”
Hi, everyone. Today we’re going to study Unit 2. Its title is I used to be afraid of the dark. In the title we find a phrase “used to ”. What does it mean? How is it used in English?
used to的用法 :
“used to＋动词原形”表示过去常常干某事，现在不在干了。只有一种形式，即过去式。例如：
I used to go to work by bus. Now I take a taxi.
She used to be very shy.
“be used to doing”表示习惯于干某事。例如：
I am used to getting up early and going to bed early.
He is used to being praised by others.
So the sentence “I used to be afraid of the dark.” means in Chinese: 我过去常害怕黑暗。“used to”的疑问形式和否定形式：
—Did you use to be afraid of the dark?
—Yes, I used to be afraid of the dark.
—Did he use to be afraid of the dark?

3a Talking and checking
On page 12 is a list of things people are usually afraid of. Put checks √ in the first two columns to mark the ones you used to be afraid of and the ones you are still afraid of.
Everyday is afraid
We all have fears from time to time. That's true no matter how big we are or brave we can be. Fear can even be good for you sometimes and even help you stay healthy. Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn. And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study more.
Being a bit on edge can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better in a recital or during a track meet. Some people even enjoy being a little scared. That's why they like to watch scary movies - or go on roller-coaster rides.
