30、ld 则表示某动作的重复，其习惯的意味较淡，因此通常与often, sometimes等词连用。如： He a naughty boy. 他从前是个顽皮的孩子。 Is this the place where you ?这是你从前住过的地方吗？,used to be,used to live,相似短语区别： be/get used to sth./doing sth. 习惯于/开始习惯于做 如： I am used to traveling by air and only on one occasion have I ever felt frightened. 我习惯了乘飞机旅行，只有一次我可
