舌尖上的美國(guó)(67):談?wù)撘粽{(diào)(下)

　　M: How long shall we stay at the Grand Canyon?
　　W: A day?(↗)
　　Q: What does the woman mean?
　　(A) We shall stay at the Grand Canyon for one day.
　　(B) Shall we stay at the Grand Canyon for one day?
　　(C) To stay at the Grand Canyon for one day is too short.
　　(D) To stay at the Grand Canyon for one day is enough.
　　正確的答案是B哦。
　　4.陳述句式一般讀降調(diào)，用以陳述事實(shí)。若讀升調(diào)，往往表示對(duì)所說(shuō)事情的懷疑。如:
　　She lent him her car.(↙)(用以陳述事實(shí))
　　She lent him her car?(↗)(表示驚奇、的懷疑，含有"Did she really lend her car to him ?"之意。)
　　5.有些一般疑問(wèn)句的句式讀作降調(diào)，實(shí)際上表示感嘆。如：
　　Hasn't she grown!(↙)這句話實(shí)則表示：她成長(zhǎng)得多快!
　　請(qǐng)看下面的試題:
　　M: Wasn't Sam's speech great!(↙)
　　W: Are you serious?
　　Q: What does the man say about Sam's speech?
　　(A) Sam's speech wasn't great, was it?
　　(B) Sam's speech was great, wasn't it?
　　(C) Sam gave a serious speech.
　　(D) Sam was not serious.
　　男人所表達(dá)的意思是啥?其實(shí)是對(duì)Sam發(fā)言之精彩發(fā)表感嘆呢，也就是B選項(xiàng)。
　　有些一般疑問(wèn)句句式也不需要回答，其功能也相當(dāng)于陳述句，但肯定結(jié)構(gòu)表否定，否定結(jié)構(gòu)表肯定，而且傳遞了說(shuō)話人濃烈的情緒。如：
　　W: Haven't you got anything better to do?(↗)
　　M: Ok, Mum, I'll turn off the TV and begin to do my homework.
　　顯然，媽媽的意思是責(zé)備兒子不應(yīng)該看電視，而應(yīng)該做比看電視更有益的事——也就是說(shuō)，媽媽認(rèn)為兒子有更好的事可做。而對(duì)話中，兒子當(dāng)然也明白媽媽的意思，因此說(shuō)要關(guān)掉電視，開(kāi)始做功課。
　　今天說(shuō)了那么多，不知道大家都明白記牢了嗎?總而言之，只要我們?cè)趦?nèi)心樹(shù)立起重視語(yǔ)調(diào)問(wèn)題的意識(shí)，經(jīng)過(guò)不斷的學(xué)習(xí)和積累，一定能成功將其內(nèi)化!
