问题: 关于反义疑问句

不太明白回答的是"是"还是"否"

解答:

反义疑问句(The Disjunctive Question)
即附加疑问句。它表示提问人的看法,没有把握,需要对方证实。

它表示提问人的看法,没有把握,需要对方证实。反义疑问句由两部分组成:前一部分是一个陈述句,后一部分是一个简短的疑问句,两部分的人称时态应保持一致。

1.陈述部分肯定式+疑问部分否定式

2.陈述部分否定式+疑问部分肯定式

They work hare, don’t they?

She was ill yesterday, wasn’t she?

You didn’t go, did you?

He can’t ride a bike, can he?

请注意以下句型的反义疑问句的用法:

1.当陈述部分的主语是I , everyone, everything, nobody 时,后面的疑问句应表示为:

I am a student, aren’t I

Everyone is in the classroom, aren’t they?

Everything begins to grow in spring, doesn’t it?

Nobody will go, will they?

2. 当陈述部分有never,seldom, hardly,few,little,barely, scarcely, nothing 等否定词时,后面的疑问句则表示为:

There are few apples in the basket, are there?

He can hardly swim, can he?

They seldom come late, do they?

3. 当陈述部分是I think 加从句时,疑问句应和从句的人称时态保持一致。

I think chickens can swim, can’t they?

I think Lucy is a good girl, isn’t she?

I didn't think he was happy, was he?

4. 陈述部分有had better 时,疑问句应用hadn’t开头:

you’d better get up early, hadn’t you?

5.当陈述部分是祈使句时,疑问句要根据语气来表达

Let’s go out for a walk, shall we?

Let us go our for a walk, will you?

Turn on the radio, will you?

6.反义疑问句的回答用yes, no, 但是,当陈述部分是否定形式时,回答要按事实。如:

They don’t work hard, do they? 他们不太努力工作,是吗?

Yes, they do. 不,他们工作努力。/No, they don’t. 对, 他们工作不努力。
