该句是一个反意疑问句。反意疑问句由两部分组成:前一部分是陈述句,后部分是简短的附加疑问句。陈述句部分若是肯定形式,附加疑问部分就用否定形式;陈述句部分若是否定形式,附加疑问部分就用肯定形式,即“前肯后否,前否后肯”。
例:Mary is verylazy,isn't she 玛丽很懒,不是吗
They were not late for the meeting, were they 他们开会没有迟到,是吗
对反意疑问句的回答,不管问题的提法如何,如果事实是肯定的,就要用yes;如果事实是否定的,就要用no;如果反意疑问的陈述句部分含有否定意义的词(no,never,nothing,few,hardly
little等)附加疑问部分要用肯定形式
例: There is little water in the glass, is there 玻璃杯里几乎没有水,是吗
祈使句的反意疑问句,一般附加疑问部分用will you;而以lets开头的祈使句其附加疑问部分用shall we。
例: Come here earlier next time,will you 下次早点儿来这儿,好吗
Let's have a rest, shall we 让我们休息一下,好吗
