用英语提问题
学习如何提问在任何语言中都是必不可少的。在英语中，最常见的问题被称为“wh”单词，因为它们以这两个字母开头:where, when, why, what和who。它们可以用作副词、形容词、代词或其他词性，用于询问特定的信息。
Who
这个词问关于人的问题。在这个例子中，“who”作为直接宾语。
Who do you like?
Who has he decided to hire for the job?
在其他情况下，“who”用作主语。在这种情况下，句子结构类似于肯定句。
Who studies Russian?
Who would like to take a vacation?
在正式英语中，单词“whom”将取代“who”作为介词的直接宾语。
To whom should I address this letter?
For whom is this present?
What
在宾语问句中，可以用这个词询问事物或动作。
What does he do at weekends?
What do you like to eat for dessert?
通过在句子中添加“like”这个词，你可以询问对人、物和地点的物理描述。
What type of car do you like?
What is Mary like?
When
Use this word to ask questions about time-related events, specific or general.
用这个词询问与时间相关的事件，具体的或一般的事件。
When do you like going out?
When does the bus leave?
Where
此词用于询问地点。
Where do you live?
Where did you go on vacation?
How
这个词可以与形容词连用，用来询问有关特定特征、质量和数量的问题。
How tall are you?
How much does it cost?
How many friends do you have?
Which
当与名词搭配时，这个词用于在许多物品之间进行选择。
Which book did you buy?
Which kind of apple do you prefer?
Which type of computer takes this plug?
Using Prepositions
很多wh疑问句可以与介词连用，通常在疑问句的末尾。一些最常见的组合是:
- who ... for
- who ... with
- where ... to
- where ... from
- what ... for (= why)
- what ... in
请注意在下面的示例中如何使用这些词对。
Who are you working for?
Where are they going to?
What did he buy that for?
你也可以在更大的对话中使用这些组合来提出后续问题。
Jennifer is writing a new article.
Who for?
She's writing it for Jane magazine.
Tips
当使用“do”和“go”等更一般的动词时，通常会在回答中使用更具体的动词。
Why did he do it?
He wanted to get a raise.
Questions with "why" are often replied to using "because" as in the following example.
带“why”的问题通常用“because”来回答，如下例所示。
Why are you working so hard?
这些问题通常用祈使句(to do)来回答。在这种情况下，带“because”的从句被理解为包含在答案中。
Why are they coming next week?
To make a presentation. (Because they are going to make a presentation.)
