9B UNIT 3
一、词汇句型语法大串联
1. Wow, the Great Wall is amazing, isn’t it? 哇，长城令人惊讶，是不是? 反意疑问句表示说话人对所陈述的事情有所怀疑或不肯定，想通过对方的回答来加以肯定或否定。
★反意疑问句的构成有两种。第一种结构是:肯定的陈述句+逗号+一般疑问句的简略否定+问号，对于反意疑问句的肯定或否定回答与一般疑问句的回答方式一样。如: ① “You are a teacher, aren’t you?” “Yes, I am. /No, I’m not.” “你是个教师，是不是?”“是的。/不，我不是。”
② “She was here yesterday, wasn’t she?” “Yes, she was. /No, she wasn’t.” “她昨天在这里，是不是?”“是的。/不，没在。”
③ “They borrowed some money from you, didn’t they?” “Yes, they did. /No, they didn’t.” “他们向你借了些钱，是不是?”“是的。/不，他们没向我借钱。” ★第二种结构是:否定的陈述句+逗号+一般疑问句的简略肯定+问号。对于这种形式的反意疑问句作回答的时候，不要过分注重问句中的否定词not在前还是在后，只要事实是肯定的，就用Yes，如事实是否定的，就用No。用Yes回答，后面就不能再用not，用No回答，后面就必须有not，这种情况与中文的表达习惯很不一样。请注意下面例句中中英文在表达上的差异。
① “Your sister isn’t coming back today, is she?” “Yes, she is. /No, she isn’t.”
“你姐姐今天不会回来，是吗?”“不，她今天会回来。/是的，她今天不会回来。” ② “You can’t do it well, can you?” “Yes, I can. /No, I can’t.” “这事你做不好，是吗?”“不，我能做好。/是的，我做不好。” ③ “There wasn’t a football game on TV last night, was there?” “Yes, there was. /No, there wasn’t.”
“昨晚电视里没有足球赛，是吗?”“不，有足球赛。/是的，没有。” 【注】在简略回答中，如果主语有变化，并用but在语气上加以转折，也会出现用Yes和not搭配以及用No而不用not的情况。如:
① “Your father isn’t a doctor, is he?” “No, but my mother is.” “你父亲不是个医生，是吗?”“对，不过我母亲是个医生。”
② “Most of you aren’t from Beijing, are you?” “Yes, but I’m not. /No, but I am.” “你们大多数人不是北京人吧，是吗?”
“不，大多数是，但我不是。/对，但我是北京人。”
★陈述句中含有never, few, little, hardly, nothing, nobody等具有否定含意的词，后面疑问部分应用肯定形式。如:
① You never saw Mr King before, did you? 你以前从未见过金先生，是吗? ② There are few apples left on the tree, are there? 树上没剩几个苹果了，是吗? ③ He has little money for food, does he? 他几乎没钱买吃的，是吗?
④ Little Mary can hardly walk by herself, can she? 小玛丽还不太会自己走路，是吗? ⑤ There’s nothing in that box, is there? 盒子里什么也没有，是吗? ⑥ Nobody saw you do it, did they? 没人看到你干这事吧，是吗?
【注】在口语中，陈述部分一般用降调，但后面疑问部分可用升调，也可用降调。如疑问部分用升调，则表明提问者对陈述部分的真实性把握不大，希望对方来确定;如疑问部分用降调，则表明提问者对陈述部分的真实性有一定把握，只须对方来印证一下。 2. amazing的用法
★amazing是amaze的现在分词形式，用作形容词，意为“令人大为惊讶的”，在句中作表语或定语，主语往往是某物。如:
