英语语法-如何把直接引语转换为间接引语.doc

PAGE PAGE 5 如何把直接引语转换为间接引语 引述别人的话时，一般采用两种方式：一是引用别人的原话，把它放在引号内，称为直接引语；二是用自己的话加以转述，被转述的话不放在引号内，称为间接引语。间接引语在大多数情况下是一个宾语从句。直接引语变成间接引语时，要注意以下几点：人称变化、时态变化、宾语从句要用陈述句语序。 　　1. 直接引语是陈述句，变成间接引语时，由连词that 引导，很多时候可省略that。例如： She said, I am very happy to help you. ?She said she was very happy to help me. She said, “I will go to Guangzhou tomorrow.” ?She said that she would go to Guangzhou the next day/the following day. She said, “I have lived in Foshan for several years.” ?She said that she had lived in Foshan for several years. She said, “ I am reading a book now.” ?She said that she was reading a book at that time/moment. John said, “I am leaving for Paris on Wednesday” ?John said that he was leaving for Paris on Wednesday. 2. 直接引语是一般疑问句，变成间接引语时，由连词whether或if（是否） 引导。先把直接引语变为陈述句语序，再放在whether或if后面。例如： He asked me, Do you like playing football? ? ?He asked me whether/if I liked playing football. He asked Mary, “Will you come to my birthday party?” ?You will come to my birthday party. ?He asked Mary whether/if she would come to his birthday party. 　　注意：大多数情况下，if和whether 可以互换，但后有or not,或在动词不定式前，或放在介词后作连接词时，一般只用whether。例如： 　　She asked me whether he could do it or not. 　　He hesitated about whether to drive or take the train. 　　3. 直接引语是特殊疑问句，变成间接引语时，由相应的疑问词who, whom, whose, how, when, why, where 等引导，先把直接引语（去掉特殊疑问词后）变为陈述句语序，再放回特殊疑问词后进行相应的变化。例如： My sister asked me, How do you like the film?” ?You like the film ?My sister asked me how I liked the film. John asked Mary, “Where shall we go?” ?John asked Mary where they should go. John asked Mary, “When shall we leave for Paris?” ?John asked Mary when they should leave for Paris. 1. Franco asked me, “Is the food ready?” ?Franco asked me whether/if the food was ready. 2.
