题目内容
Jeremy Lin __________ an unknown basketball player in New York Knicks for quite a long time.
- A.used to be
- B.used to being
- C.is used to be
- D.was used to be
考查动词的时态用法。固定词组used to“过去常常,过去一向”,本身指的就是过去习惯的动作或者状态,前面不再加be动词,后面直接用动词原形。be used to“习惯于…”中的to是介词,后面接名词或者现在分词。be used to“被用于…”中的to是不定式符号,后面接动词原形。根据句意:Jeremy Lin过去不出名,因此,最佳选项是A。
