Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: B
Geçmişteki bir alışkanlığın olumsuzu "didn't use to" + yalın fiildir. "weren't used to" ardından -ing gelmesi gerekir; "don't use to" ise geniş zamandır ve öğrencilik yıllarıyla uyuşmaz.

- D)I use to like olives when I was a child.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster

Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: C

Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: D
"If my phone weren't broken, I would call her" cümlesindeki "would" geçmiş alışkanlık değil, şu andaki hayalî bir koşulun sonucudur (second conditional); "used to" ile değiştirilemez. Diğer cümlelerde "would" geçmişte tekrarlanan eylemleri anlatır.
Soru 8

- A)didn't use to spend / would
- B)used not spending / would
- C)wasn't used to spend / used
- D)didn't use to spending / was used to
Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: A
Geçmişteki olumsuz alışkanlık "didn't use to spend", tekrarlanan eylem ise "would work" ile anlatılır: "didn't use to spend / would". "wasn't used to spend" yanlıştır çünkü be used to ardından -ing gelir; "used work", "was used to work" ve "used not spending" da biçimce yanlıştır.

- B)They didn't use to like jazz. / They aren't used to liking jazz.
- C)He used to own a boat. / He would own a boat.
- D)I used to drive to work. / I'm used to driving to work.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: A
Tekrarlanan geçmiş eylemlerde "used to" ve "would" aynı anlamı verir. "Own" bir durum fiilidir, bu yüzden "He would own a boat" geçmiş durumu anlatamaz.

- A)No, I don't. I used to, but the pool near my office closed.
- B)No, I didn't use to. I've never liked the water.
- C)Yes, I'm used to it now, so it's much easier.
- D)Yes, I would go there every morning before work.
Cevabı ve çözümü göster
Doğru cevap: A
Ayten'in "that's a pity" demesi Tamer'in artık yüzmediğini gösterir: "No, I don't. I used to, but the pool near my office closed." "No, I didn't use to" ise hiç yüzmediği anlamına gelir ve "You used to love it" ile çelişir.
