Grammar in use: 直接引语和间接引语
1 .直接引语就是直接引用说话人原来所说的话;间接引语就是原话的转述。直接引语放在引号里,间接引语是把说话人的原话变成宾语从句。
2 .间接引语中,宾语从句中的动词与主句中的主要动词在时态上必须保持一致。一般来说,主要动词用现在时,间接引语中可用现在时(包括一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时)和将来时。如:
She says she's got a headache.
她说她头痛。
He says he's staying at a Youth Hostel.
你说他正住在一家青年招待所。
He says he has sold his house.
他说他已卖掉了房子。
把直接陈述改为间接引语时,谓语动词形式的变化
体现在人称上。如:
1 . He says: ‘I hope you are all well. ’
他说:"我希望你们都身体健康。"
He says he hopes we/they are all well.
他说他希望我们/他们都身体健康。
2 The girl says: ‘I have finished my homework.’
那个姑娘说:"她已完成了家庭作业。"
The girl says that she has finished her
homework.
那个姑娘说她已完成了家庭作业。
