There are three kinds of questions in English: direct, indirect, and question tags. People use these types of questions 131 according to different situations. But all in all, each type can be 132 to ask polite questions.
Direct questions are those questions like “Where is the 133 station ” Of course, asking direct questions is certainly right, but normally, we make these questions 134 to get help. We usually do it by adding “excuse me” or “ 135 me” to our questions.
It’s also common to use “could” or “would” 136 some situations. For example we can say “Excuse me, could you please help me ” Remember that “please” should not appear at the 137 of the question.
Most people use indirect questions. An indirect question begins with a phrase (I wonder, Do you think, Would you mind, etc). For example, ”I wonder 138 you know what time it is.”
Question tags are used to check information that we think is 139 . We use them to ask for more information with different intonations (语调). If the voice goes up at the end of the 140 , the person is asking for more information. If the voice drops, someone is confirming (确认) information which is known.
