浅谈英语的反意疑问句的特殊形式
在初中英语中出现了反意疑问句。此句式由两部分构成:陈述句+简短问句。其结构有两种:
①肯定陈述句+否定简短问句;
②否定陈述句+肯定简短问句(即我们平时所说的“前肯后否,前否后肯”)。
这是反意疑问句的一般格式,但在实际运用中与规则不同的特殊形式比比皆是。本文拟谈谈反意疑问句的特殊形式:
一、祈使句后的反意疑问句:
祈使句后加一个反意疑问句,使祈使句变得更加委婉。肯定祈使句的反意疑问句通常用will you, won’t you, would you, can you, can’t you等来表达不同的含义。在否定的祈使句后的反意疑问句通常只用will you。
1、表示“请求”,肯定祈使句的反意疑问句用will you。如:
①Give me a hand, will you ②Pass me a book, will you
2、表示“邀请”、“劝诱”时,肯定祈使句后的反意疑问句用won’t you。如:
Have another cup of tea, won’t you
3、表示“催促”、“不耐烦”时,肯定祈使句后的反意疑问句用can’t you。如:
Stop talking, can’t you
4、用“Let’s…”开头的肯定祈使句表示“提议、建议、主张”,其后的反意疑问句用shall we。如:
Let’s have a try, shall we
但是以Let us…或Let me…开头的祈使句后的反意疑问句则要用will you。如:
Let us go now, will you
5、否定祈使句的反意疑问句只用will you。如:
Don’t take away my dictionary, will you
以Let’s not…开头的祈使句后的反意疑问句用all right或OK。如:
①Let’s not go fishing, all right ②Let’s not talk about it any more, OK
二、复合句的反意疑问:
复合句的反意疑问的主谓语要视其主要内容而定,不能一概说以主句为准还是以从句为准。
1、多数复合句后的反意疑问句的主、谓语同主句的主、谓语一致。如:
①He said he was a teacher, didn’t he ②John thinks the rain is ending, doesn’t he
③You don’t mind if I go now, do you
2、主句是I think(suppose, consider, believe, guess, expect, imagine, feel, am afraid, hear, say等)+宾语从句时,反意疑问句的主、谓语应与从句的主、谓语一致。如:
①I don’t think he will come, will he ②I heard that he was very honest, wasn’t he
3、并列复合句的反意疑问句的主、谓语应与相近的分句的主、谓语相一致。如:
John isn’t a hard-working student, for he has been late for three times, hasn’t he
三、含有情态动词或助动词的反意疑问句:
1、当陈述部分含有情态动词must,其意义表示“必须、必要”时,其后的反意疑问句用mustn’t或needn’t。如:
①You must do it today, mustn’t you ②She must look after her sister, needn’t she
如果must的含义表示“一定是、想必”等推测意义时,其后的反意疑问句则要依据句中的谓语动词的时态结构采用be/have/did/do+not等相应形式。如:
①He must bee ill, isn’t he ②You must have seen the film before, haven’t you
2、如果陈述部分用了must have+P.P.(过去分词),但明示或暗示了过去的时间,其反意疑问句用过去时。如:
He must have seen him yesterday, didn’t he
3、陈述部分含情态动词ought to,其后反意疑问句用oughtn’t或shouldn’t均可。如:
①I ought to come here, oughtn’t I ②You ought to go by ship, shouldn’t you
4、陈述部分含情态动词used to,其后反意疑问句用usedn’t或didn’t均可。如:
①Tom used to live here, usedn’t he ②They used to work in the shop, didn’t they
5、陈述部分含有have/has/had to时,其后的反意疑问句用do的相应形式。如:
①You have to go, don’t you ②He has to stay in bed all day, doesn’t he
③I had to keep it well, didn’t I
但是在陈述句中用have/has/had got to来代替have/has/had to时,反意疑问句用have的相应形式。如:
①Ann has got to see a doctor, hasn’t she
②You haven’t got to go to school on Sunday, have you
6、陈述部分有had better/would rather时,其后的反意疑问句用hadn’t/wouldn’t。如:
①You’d better not stay here, had you ②They would rather take this one, wouldn’t they
四、陈述句主语是某些不定代词的反意疑问句:
1、陈述句部分主语是everything, something, anything, nothing时,其后的反意疑问句主语用it。如:
①Everything seems all right, doesn’t it ②Nothing is in the box, is it
2、陈述部分的主语是everybody, somebody, anybody, nobody, everyone, no one, none, either, some one时,其后的反意疑问句用主语they以兼顾所指代的男、女两性。如:
①Everybody has got the new books, haven’t they
②Anyone can do that, can’t they ③No one is interested in that, are they
3、陈述部分主语是不定代词one时,其后的反意疑问句一般用主语one。如:
One can’t be always careful, can one
五、含有否定词或半否定词的反意疑问句:
1、陈述部分含有no, never, seldom, hardly, rarely, scarely, few, little等否定或半否定意义的词时,都视为否定,故反意疑问句部分用肯定形式。如:
①Few people knew the answer, did they ②Little Fran hardly says such words, does he
2、如果陈述部分的否定意义只是由单词加否定前缀构成时,其后的反意疑问句一般要用否定形式。如:
He is unhappy, isn’t he
六、陈述部分的主语是指示代词的反意疑问句:
1、陈述部分主语是指示代词this, that时,其后的反意疑问句用主语it。如:
This is important, isn’t it
2、陈述部分主语是指示代词these, those时,其后的反意疑问句用主语they。如:
Those are mine, aren’t they
七、反意疑问句的其他特殊形式:
1、陈述部分是“I’m…”结构时,其后的反意疑问句用aren’t I?如:
I am a student, aren’t I
2、陈述部分是there be或there live, there stand, there used to be等结构时,其后的反意疑问句用主语there。如:
①There is something wrong with your bike, isn’t there
②There lived a king here many years ago, didn’t there
3、陈述部分的主语是动词不定式、动名词短语以及词组或从句时,其后的反意疑问句用主语it。如:
①Doing eye exercises is good for your eyes, isn’t it
②What the teacher said is true, isn’t it
4、感叹句后的反意疑问句,动词用be的现在时,主语根据具体内容而定。如:
①What a clever girl, isn’t she ②How beautiful the flowers are, aren’t they
