典型陷阱之反意疑問句
    1. There is hardly any rain this summer, _______?
    A. isn’t it B. is it C. isn’t there D. is there
    【解析】此題陷阱選項(xiàng)為A或B或C。選A或C的考生是由于沒有注意到hardly這個詞而草率做題造成的;選B的考生注意到了hardly這個半否定詞,但卻忽視了這是一個there be結(jié)構(gòu),后面的反意疑問部分的主語仍然用there。當(dāng)句中有no, nothing, never, hardly, few, little等否定詞或半否定詞時后面的反意疑問句要用肯定形式。正確答案為D。
    2. She was unhappy when she heard the news, _______?
    A. was she B. wasn’t she C. does she D. didn’t she
    【解析】此題陷阱選項(xiàng)為A。當(dāng)句中有no, nothing, never, hardly, few, little等否定詞或半否定詞時后面的反意疑問句要用肯定形式。但是,當(dāng)句中有由加否定前綴或后綴構(gòu)成的否定詞時,后面的反意疑問句不受其影響,仍用否定形式。正確答案為B。
    3. She thinks she can get there on time, _______she?
    A. can B. can’t C. doesn’t D. does
    【解析】此題陷阱選項(xiàng)為A或B。錯誤的原因是受了思維定式的影響。因?yàn)樵谄綍r訓(xùn)練時“I think + that從句 / I don’t think + that從句”這樣的句子,它們后面的反意疑問句的主語和謂語要根據(jù)后面的從句來確定,肯定或否定形式則根據(jù)主句來確定。如:I think she will win the game, won’t she? I don’t think chickens can swim, can they? 但是,當(dāng)主句中的主語不是I時,其后的反意疑問句的主語和謂語仍然根據(jù)主句來確定。因此,正確答案為C。
    4. —They haven’t paid for their tickets, have they?
    —_______. They didn’t pay any money.
    A. Yes, they have B. No, they haven’t C. Yes, they haven’t D. No, they have.
    【解析】此題陷阱選項(xiàng)為A或C。選A的同學(xué)是由于忽略語境造成的,如果不看They didn’t pay any money. 這句話,那么A項(xiàng)確實(shí)是正確答案。選C的同學(xué)是由于受了漢語思維的定式引起的,因?yàn)檫@個答案譯成漢語正好是“是的,他們沒有付錢”。大家應(yīng)注意否定疑問句的回答方式與肯定的疑問句的回答方式是一樣,只不過這時yes要譯為“不”,而no要譯為“是的”。正確答案為B。(from)
