1. 变成一般疑问句 将陈述句变成一般疑问句,要根据陈述句中的谓语动词及其时态确定疑问形式。其句型特点一般是:助动词或情态动词 + 主语 + 谓语 + 动词 + 其他?如: The policeman told the boys not to play football in the street. ________ the policeman ________ the boys not to play football in the street? 答案:Did, tell
2. 变成特殊疑问句 将陈述句变成特殊疑问句时,常用的方法是“一选,二移,三变,四代”。 “一选”就是选择疑问词,被选择的疑问代词有:what, which, who, whose;疑问副词有:where, when, why, how;疑问副词词组有:how long, how often, how soon, how far, how many, how much, how old等。 “二移”就是把be动词,助动词或情态动词移到句首。 “三变”就是将原句中第一个单词的首字母改为小写(专有名词除外),将some, something等改为any, anything等,将句号改为问号。 四代就是将选好的特殊疑问词替代划线部分。如: At the age of three, David weighed 20 kilos. (就划线部分提问) ________ did David weigh at the age of three? 答案:How much
3. 变成选择疑问句 将陈述句变成一般疑问句,在问号前加上“or + 所给的被选择部分”。如: Most young men like popular music. (用 rock music 改为选择疑问句) ________ most young men like popular music ________ rock music? 答案:Do, or
4. 变成反意疑问句 陈述句变成反意疑问句时一定要遵循“前肯定,后否定;前否定,后肯定”的原则。常考的六种特殊的反意疑问句是: ①在英语口语中,I am后面的附加疑问部分常用aren’t I; ②There be... 后面的附加疑问部分一般用be(not)there; ③在Let us...后面,常用will you; ④Let’s...后面,常用shall we; ⑤had better后面,附加疑问部分的助动词用had; ⑥当陈述部分是祈使句时,附加疑问部分通常用will you或won’t you。如:(from www.zkenglish.com) Miss King hardly spoke a word the whole time. Miss King hardly spoke a word the whole time, ________ ________? 答案:did she
