第二十九課 間接引句（二）
一.本課要點及示例
在這一課里, 我們繼續學習怎么樣引述別人或是自己以前說過的話.
首先我們還是依照慣例, 聽一段對話, 內容是說彼得轉告凱特, 亨利打電話回 家, 交待了一些什么事情. 請你特別注意英文老師的發音和語調.
M: Mom, Dad called and said that he wouldn't be home for dinner.
F: Did he say why?
M: Yes,he said that one of the men was sick and he was going to stay for the afternoon shift.
F: Did he say when he would be home?
M: He didn't say. But he did say that he was tired. He had had a busy day.
F: Did he say why?
M: He said that there had been a big fire in town and it had taken nearly all morning to put it out.
F: I hope that he wasn't hurt.
現在我們把整段對話再聽一遍, 請你注意聽.
M: Mom, Dad called and said that he wouldn't be home for dinner.
F: Did he say why?
M: Yes,he said that one of the men was sick and he was going to stay for the afternoon shift.
F: Did he say when he would be home?
M: He didn't say. But he did say that he was tired. He had had a busy day.
F: Did he say why?
M: He said that there had been a big fire in town and it had taken nearly all morning to put it out.
F: I hope that he wasn't hurt.
下面老師再把對話里的間接引句念一遍給你聽.
M: Dad said that he wouldn't be home for dinner.
M: He said that one of the men was sick.
F: Did he say when he would be home?
M: He did say that he was tired.
M: He said that there had been a big fire in town.
二.間接引句復習
從上面的幾個句子你可以看出間接引句的一些規則,有一些我們在上一課已經 學過; 有些我們今天要學.
首先我們復習上一課教過的. 第一組練習是由彼得或是凱特說幾句話, 然后由 別人引述一遍, 請你注意聽.
M: Henry is going to stay for the afternoon shift.
F: Peter said that Henry was going to stay for the afternoon shift.
M: He will be busy in the afternoon.
F: Peter said that Henry would be busy in the afternoon.
M: He can't come home for dinner.
F: Peter said that Henry couldn't come home for dinner.
F: Is Henry tired?
M: Kate asked if Henry was tired.
F: Is Henry hurt?
M: Kate asked whether Henry was hurt.
三.引述疑問句
聽了上面一組練習, 我想你對我們上一課教過的間接引句已經有了印象, 尤其 是怎么樣引述問句. 現在我們來學習怎么樣引述用疑問詞.比方 "為什么" why, "哪兒" where, "什么時候" when 開頭的疑問句. 如果有人問你: "你什么時候下 班?" When are you going to be off duty? 在引述這句話的時候你就應該這么說:
Someone asked me when I was going to be off duty. 請你注意, 因為有疑問詞, 所以在間接引句里疑問詞代替了我們以前學過 if, whether, 或是 that, 但是仍 然必須把問句改為過去時態陳述句. 我再舉一個例子, 比方有人問你:"怎么樣 才能作救火員?" How can one be a fire fighter? 在引述這句話的時候你就應該 這么說: Someone asked me how one could be a fire fighter.
現在我們作一組練習,學學這種說法.練習的作法是由凱特問一些有關亨利跟 其他救火員的情況的問題, 然后學生就把凱特的話引述一遍. 在學生 作練習 的時候請你也一起作.
F: Why isn't Henry coming home for dinner?
M: Kate asked why Henry wasn't coming home for dinner.
F: Why is he going to stay for the afternoon shift?
M: Kate asked why Henry was going to stay for the afternoon shift.
F: Where is he?
M: Kate asked where Henry was.
F: How is he?
M: Kate asked how Henry was.
F: How are his fellow fire fighters?
M: Kate asked how Henry's fellow fire fighters were.
F: When is he going to be off duty?
M: Kate asked when Henry was going to be off duty.
F: When is he coming home?
M: Kate asked when Henry was coming home.
