反意疑问句
湖北省咸宁市通城县关刀中学:卢翠松
反意疑问句是英语四大问句之一,它是由一个陈述句加上一个短问句而构成的。反意疑问句的基本构成形式是:陈述句+动词(肯定或否定)+主语?如:
①She often has lunch at school, doesn’t she ②You don’t like sports, do you
使用反意疑问句要注意以下若干对应规则:
一、 反意疑问句中问句部分的动词与陈述部分的动词在语气上成相反的对应关系,即:
肯定+否定? 否定+肯定?如:
①You can’t do it, can you ②They are very late for the meeting, aren’t they
二、 反意疑问句中问句部分的动词与陈述部分的动词种类要对应一致。如:
①He has supper at home every day, doesn’t he (不能用hasn’t he )
②They have known the matter, haven’t they (不能用don’t they )
三、 反意疑问句中问句部分的动词在时态上应和陈述部分的时态一致。如:
①They will go to town soon, won’t they (不能用don’t they 或 aren’t they )
②He works very hard, doesn’t he (不能用didn’t he 或won’t he )
四、 反意疑问句的陈述部分含有由un-, im-, in-, dis-, 等否定意义的前缀构成的词语时,陈述部分要视为肯定含义,问句部分用否定形式。如:
①Your father is unhappy, isn’t he (不能用is he )

五、反意疑问句的陈述部分带有little, few, never, hardly, seldom等否定意义的词时,问句部分用肯定式。如:

②We think that English is very useful, isn’t it (不用don’t we )
八、反意疑问句的陈述部分为I(We) don’t think(believe, suppose, consider)+ that从句时,从句为否定意义,问句部分的动词和主语仍与that从句保持一致且用肯定式。如:
①I don’t think that you can do it, can you (不用do I )
②We don’t believe that the news is true, is it (不用do we )
九、反意疑问句的陈述部分为非第一人称主语+ think(believe, suppose, consider) + that从句时,问句部分的动词和主语与陈述部分的主句动词和主语保持一致。如:
①They all think that English is very important, don’t they (不用isn’t it )
②He didn’t think that the news was true, did he (不用wasn’t/ was it )
