Объяснение:
Конструкция used to используется, когда мы хотим рассказать о действиях, которые в ПРОШЛОМ происходили РЕГУЛЯРНО, а сегодня ИХ НИКТО НЕ ВЫПОЛНЯЕТ.
I used to live in Sochi. - Я жила в Сочи (в прошлом, а сейчас я не живу там)
Обратите внимание на отрицательные и вопросительные предложения с конструкцией:
I didn’t USE to…
Did you USE to…?
В отрицаниях и вопросах появляется вспомогательный глагол did, который «забирает» себе окончание прошедшего времени.
