如何理解这个Where is what? 有这样一道题:是 Where is what? 还是 Where is that? 或是 Where is it 呢? —Where is it? —Where is _________? I don’t know what you mean. A. what B. that C. it D. so 【分析】此题应选A。许多同学认为“疑问词”只能出现在句首位置,对于选A认为不可理解。其实在某些特殊语境中,疑问词出现在句中甚至句末是完全可能的, 但这多半是有特殊的语境或使用的句式比较特殊。上面一题选 what 的原因是:上句问 Where is it?(它在什么地方),但听话人对此句中代词 it 指代什么东西并不清楚, 所以他反问 Where is what?(什么在什么地方?) 其实,这类用法在口语中经常使用。如: “Who took it?” “Who took what?” “谁把它拿走了?”“谁把什么拿走了?” “We are ready. Let's begin.” “Ready for what” “我们准备好了,开始吧。”“准备干什么?” “What are you going to do next fall?” “Next what?” “下一个秋季你打算要干什么?”“你说下一个什么?” 下面的句子虽然不是疑问句,但性质是一样的: Who said what to whom? 谁对谁说了什么? It was so dark I couldn’t tell who was who. 当时一片漆黑,我分不清哪个是哪个。 They look exactly the same, and I really don’t know which is which. 它们看起来一模一样,我实在分不清哪个是哪个。 |
