直接引语和间接引语
一、直接引语和间接引语的概述
在直接引用别人的原话时,被引用的句子称为直接引语。在用直接引语时,引语前后都要加引号。引导引语的动词称为引用动词,如:say, ask, answer, reply等。引用动词多数放在后面,有时放在前面,间或插在引语中间。在把引用动词放在后面时,有时主语和动词位置可以颠倒(特别是主语较长时)。
【例】
“Who is it?” Ann shouted.
“I never eat meat,” she explained.
“Sit up,” he commanded, “and hold out your hands.”
当用自己的话转述别人的话时,被转述的部分称为间接引语。这时被引语部分常常是引用动词的宾语。在多数情况下,引语都由连词that引导,但在say, tell等词后可以省略。
【例】He said (that) he had lost the bag.
Tell her I am out.
二、把直接引语变成间接引语时,要改变的内容
1.要根据意思改变人称。
2.要根据时态呼应的原则把时态加以调整。
3.指示代词、时间状语、地点状语和动词也需要作必要的变动。
三、各种句式变间接引语时要发生的变化
1.陈述句
直接引语如果是陈述句,变为间接引语时,用连词that引导 (that可省略)。
【例】
Tony said to me, “ I will leave this book in your desk.”
→Tony told me (that) he would leave that book in my desk.
如果直接引语是表示建议、要求、推测、判断的陈述句,变为间接引语时,可以变为动词不定式、V-ing形式或含虚拟语气的宾语从句。
【例】
Jane said to Tony, “You’d better ask your friends for some advice.”
→Jane advised Tony to ask his friends for some advice.
→Jane suggested Tony asking his friends for some advice.
→Jane advised/suggested that Tony (should) ask his friends for some advice.
2.一般疑问句、选择疑问句和反意疑问句
直接引语是一般疑问句,变为间接引语时,要用连词whether或if引导,同时把原来的疑问句语序变为陈述句语序。
【例】
The woman asked me, “Can you show me the way to the nearest bookstore?”
→The woman asked me whether/if I could show her the way to the nearest bookstore.
直接引语是选择疑问句,变为间接引语时,通常用连词whether引导,同时把原来的疑问句语序变为陈述句语序。
【例】
My friend asked, “Will you come here by bus or by bike?”
→My friend asked whether I would go there by bus or by bike.
直接引语是反意疑问句,变为间接引语时,常由连词whether或if引导,同时把原来的疑问句语序变为陈述句语序。
【例】
He asked, “This math problem is very difficult, isn’t it?
→He asked whether/if that math problem was very difficult.
3.特殊疑问句
直接引语是特殊疑问句,变为间接引语时,仍用原来的疑问词引导,同时把原来的疑问句语序变为陈述句语序。
【例】
She asked, “Where do you come from, Tom?”
→She asked Tom where he came from.
4.表示请求、提议、建议或劝告等意义的疑问句
直接引语如果是此类疑问句,变为间接引语时,可以变为动词不定式、V-ing形式或含虚拟语气的宾语从句。
【例】
“Could you please tell me something about the trip?” David said to his sister.
→David asked his sister to tell him something about the trip.
“Why
