text

While John Gilbert was in hospital, he asked his doctor to tell him whether his
operation had been successful, but the doctor refused to do so. The following
day, the patient asked for a bedside tele-phone. When he was alone, he telephoned
the hospital exchange and asked for Doc-tor Millington. When the doctor answered
the phone, Mr Gilbert said he was in-quiring about a certain patient, a Mr
John Gilbert. He asked if Mr Gilbert's operation had been successful and the
doctor told him that it had been. He then asked when Mr Gilbert would be allowed
to go home and the doctor told him that he would have to stay in hospital for an-
other two weeks. Then Dr Millington asked the caller if he was a relative of the
patient.' No,' the patient answered,' I am Mr John Gilbert.'

key structures
如果直接引語是問句，變為間接引語時，主句不說e said，而用he asked
told可以跟問句連，還可以跟陳述句連
祈使句：唯一不以從句方式表達的
tell sb to do sth
ask sb to do sth
以that引導的是陳述句
has my operation been successful？

1、certain 前加數字表某幾個
