【详解】then：然后，置于句首首字母大写；he：他，作主语；ask sb to do sth要求某人做某事；all of us：我们所有人，宾语；think of想；English names：英文名字；for ourselves为自己；句子为一般现在时，主语he为第三人称单数，谓语动词用三单。故填Then he asks all of us to think of English names for ourselves.
16．【答案】He tells us that his English name is John.
【详解】根据汉语提示，标点符号及“tell sb that…”可知，句子that引导的宾语从句，主从句都为一般现在时。主句主语he，位于句首首字母应大写；主句谓语动词tell，因主语为第三人称单数，谓语动词tell应用其三单形式；我们we，在句子中作宾语，应用其宾格形式us；从句引导词that，只用于连接主从句，不在从句中充当任何成分，意味着从句是完整的句子。从句主语his English name，be动词is，表语John。故填He tells us that his English name is John.
17．【答案】—Could you help me
—Of course./Sure.
【详解】根据汉语句意可知，本题为情景交际用语，时态为一般现在时，问句为一般疑问句。could“能（情态动词，表委婉语气）”，位于句首时首字母大写；you“你”；help“帮助”；me“我”（动词后面用人称代词宾格形式）；答语可用“Of course./Sure.”回复。故填：—Could you help me —Of course./Sure.
