Английский язык для студентов сельскохозяйственных вузов
Специальный вопрос (Special question) это вопрос к какому-либо члену предложения и требует конкретного ответа. Здесь участвует вопросительное слово. Существует два типа специальных вопросов:
– к группе подлежащего (здесь нет вспомогательного глагола. E.g. Who lives in London? )
– к любому другому члену предложения. E.g. Where is Mark?
Вопросительные слова: What? When? Who? Why? Where? How many ( much )? How? Whom? Which? Whose?
Альтернативный вопрос (Alternative question) это вопрос, в основе которого лежит выбор-альтернатива. Здесь участвует союз or. E.g. Do you study English or German?
Разделительный вопрос (Disjunctive question) это вопрос, состоящий из двух частей всегда противоположных друг другу (первая часть – утвердительное или отрицательное предложение, вторая ( Question tag) – переспрос, состоящий из вспомогательного глагола и личного местоимения, заменяющего подлежащее. Переспрос переводится: «не так ли?»). E.g. You don’t like winter, do you? He was there, wasn’t he?
Exercise 2. Put a question tag at the end of each sentence.
1) Ann’s on holiday, …
2) You weren’t listening, …
3) Sue doesn’t like onions, …
4) Jack applied for the job, …
5) He won’t mind if I come early, …
6) He had not seen her before, …
7) She is right, …
Порядок слов в вопросительном предложении
Порядок слов в вопросительном предложении определяется одной схемой, независимо от временной формы глагола-сказуемого.
Рассмотрим пример: We borrow books from the library.
Exercise 3. Put questions of different types to the sentences.
1) He is in the room. 2) We like holidays. 3) They are buying a new computer. 4) She has got three sisters in Moscow. 5) They are not ready today. 6) My flat is on the second floor. 7) Ann didn’t see my report. 8) We see many books on the shelves. 9) Every week Dan writes a letter.
PERSONAL PRONOUNS Личные местоимения
В английском языке глаголы to be, to have, to do являются многофункциональными.
Следует помнить, что модальные конструкции: to be to, to have to имеют одинаковое значение должен, однако с разными оттенками долженствования. E.g. I am to go there. – Я обязан ( должен по плану, по договорённости) поехать туда. I have to go there. – Я вынужден поехать туда ( должен вместо Н., который заболел ).
have, have+got, do+have1Форма have без got и do сохраняется в устной и письменной формах официально-делового стиля. Например:
Have you an appointment?
Однако неосложненное have постепенно вытесняется формами с got и do.
Например:
Have you got the money? ( обладание)
Do you have the money?
I’ve got a new car.
She hasn’t got a car.
He has got a brother. ( родственные отношения)
Устойчивые сочетания на основе глагола haveI have ( got) a cold. – Я простудился.
He has an appointment. – У него назначена встреча.
He has a lesson. – У него занятие.
He has breakfast ( dinner, lunch, …) at 7. – Он завтракает в 7.
to have a swim ( a bath, a shave, a sleep, a day off, a nice evening, a walk, a shower, a rest, a dream, a holiday)
She has a baby. – У нее родился ребенок.
I’ve got an idea. – У меня есть идея.
