五.重点、难点分析：

(-)反意疑问句

反意疑问句是初中阶段英语教学的重点和难点，而这部分内

容在教材中又比较分散，有必要把分散的知识集中起来串讲，分

块复习，各个击破以提高综合运用能力与应试能力。

(1)反意疑问句要点简述

反意疑问句又叫附加疑问句，是在陈述句后，对陈述句所叙

述的事实提出的疑问。其基本结构有两种：一是“肯定陈述句十

简略否定问句”；二是“否定陈述句+简略肯定问句”。反意疑

问句的前后两部分在时态、人称和数上都要保持一致。

如：

Itlookslikerain,doesn'tit?

Hedoesn'tneedtoworksolate,doeshe?

(2)学习反意疑问句，特别要注意的问题

1.陈述部分的主语是this,that时，疑问部分的主语多用it;陈

述部分的主语是these,those时，疑问部分的主语多用they。如:

Thisisadictionary,isn'tit?

Thoseareshelves,aren'tthey?

2.陈述句如果是therebe结构时,疑问句部分仍用there。如:

ThereoncewasamannamedSaintNicholas,wasn'tthere?

3.在英语口语中，“Iam+表语结构”，后面的反意疑问句多

用aren'tI来体现。如:

IamveryinterestedinlearningEnglish,aren'tI?

4.陈述句的主语是动词不定式，动词的-ing形式或从句时，疑

问部分的主语多用it来体现。如:

Takingcareofourenvironmentisveryimportant,isn'tit?

Whathesaidisright,isn'tit?

5.陈述句中含有not,no,hardly,neither,never,few,little,

too…to等否定词或具有否定意义的词时，疑问部分常用肯定形

式。如：

Fewpeopleknewthenews,didthey?

TomhasneverbeentoEngland,hashe?

但陈述句中如果带有否定意义的前缀利后缀的单词时，整个

句子仍视为肯定句，反意疑问部分多用否定形式。如：

Sheisunhappy,isn'tshe?

6.陈述句的主语是nobody,noone,everyone,somebody等不

定代词时，反意疑问部分的主语多用they（当强调全体时）或he

（当强调个体时）。如果陈述句的主语是something,nothing,

anything,everything等不定代词时，反意疑问部分的主语多用it。

如：

Nooneknowshim,dothey?

Someoneiswaitingforyou,isn'the?

Nobodysaysawordabouttheaccident,dothey?

Everythingseemsallright,doesn'tit?

7.陈述句是主从复合句时，如果主句的谓语动词是think,

believe,expect,feel,guess等词，且主语是第一人称I时,反意疑

问部分的人称、时态与宾语从句保持一致，同时还要考虑到否定

的转移。如：

Ibelievethattheboycangetaticketforyou,can'the?

（二）重点、难点句子

1.P76It'saniceday,isn'tit?天气不错，不是吗？

这是一个反意疑问句，表示提出情况或看法，问对方同不同

意。这种问句都由两部分组成，前一部分用陈述句的形式，后一

部分是一个附着在前一部分上的简短问句。如前一部分为肯定形

式，后一部分通常用否定形式，而且后一部分的主谓与前一部分

的主谓要保持人称及助动词等方面的一致。这种疑问句的回答要

根据事实，肯定的用“Yes,…”。否定的用“No,…”。前后要

一致。如：

Heisateacher,isn'the?

他是一位老师，不是吗？

Yourmothergoestoworkeveryday,doesn'tshe?

你妈妈每天上班，不是吗?

Shedidn'tgotoschool,didshe?

她没上学，是吗？

Youwon'tbeawayforlong,willyou?

你不会离开太久，是吧？

2,P76laDoyousometimestalkwithpeopleyoudon'tknow?

你有时跟你不熟悉的人谈话吗?

句中youdon'tknow作定语修饰people。talkwith意为

“与……交谈"，与talkto（与……说话）没太大的区别。而talk

about意为“谈论……内容”。如：

He'stalkingwithmyfather.

他正和我父亲谈话。

Whatareyoutalkingabout?

你们在谈什么？

3,P76la-He'sreallygood,isn'the?

他真的很棒，不是吗?

—Hesureis.

他确实很棒。

上句中really为副词修饰形容词good。回答反意疑问句常常

根据事实回答，下句正式回答应为Yes,heis.但在口语中或非正

式场合可用Hesureis表示“他确实很棒"。sure在句中作副词，

表示“确实地，事实上”。又如：

—She'sreallykind,isn'tshe?

她真的热心肠，不是吗?

—Shesureis.

她确实如此。

4.P772bItalwaysrainsontheweekend,doesn'tit?

在周末总下雨，是不是？

句中ontheweekend意为“在周末”。表示在具体的某一天,

常用介词on。如：

Theymetonawarmday.

他们在一个暖和日子相会。

Tomwantstobuyanewhouseontheweekend.

汤姆想在周末买幢新房子。

5.P783bTwopeoplelookingthroughbooksinabookstore.

两个人在书店里看书。

句中lookthrough意为“浏览，仔细检查，粗略看一遍”。

又如：

Beforeyouanswerthesequestions,you'dbetterlook

throughthemfirst.

在你回答这些问题之前，你最好先把它们浏览一下。

ImustlookthroughthesebillsandcheckthembeforeIpay

them.

我必须在付款前检查和核对一下这些帐单。

6.P?83bTwopeoplealoneinanelevator.

只有两个人在电梯里。

句中alone是形容词，意为“单独的”。作定语时，放在所

修饰的名词后面，alone=byoneself。如：

Hewillberememberedforthatonebookalone.

仅仅那一本书就可以使他留名于世了。

Shefinishedwritingthatbookalone.

她独自一个人写完那本书。

注意：表示“孤独的、独自一人的”则用另一个形容词lonely,

它与alone不同的是该词带有感情色彩，有寂寞、孤独之意。如:

Ifeellonelyamongstrangers.

在陌生人中我感到孤独。

Shelivesinalonelymountainvillage.

她生活在一个偏僻的山村。

7.P79laHowmuchdidthatshirtcost?

那件衬衣多少钱？

句中cost作动词,意为“花费"，与pay,take,spend同义,

但用法不同，其句型为“某物+cost+人+时间/金钱”。试比

较下列句子：

Thebookcostmefivedollars.

这本书花了我5美元。

Ittookmefivedollarstobuythebook.

买这本书花了我5美元。

Ispentfivedollarsonthebook.

我花5美元买这本书。

注意：四个表示“花费”的动词，其句式各不相同，小结为:

(1)sthcostsbmoney某物花某人金钱

(2)Ittakessbmoneytodosth花某人金钱做某事

(3)sbpaymoneyforsth某人为某物花金钱

(4)sbspendmoneyonsth某人在某物上花钱

8.Pso3aIfeellikepartofthegroupnew.

我感觉像是他们中的一员了。

在这一句中，feel表示“感觉到"，而like意为“像"。feel

like作为一个短语，意为“欲，想要”。其后常接名词或动名词

作宾语。如：

We'llgoforawalkifyoufeellikeit.

如果你愿意，我们去散散步。

Idon'tfeellikeeatinganything.

我不想吃任何东西。

9.Pso3aFriendslikeyoumakeitaloteasiertogetalongina

newplace.

有像你这样的一些朋友，使我在新的地方很快就适应了。

动词短语getalong意为“和睦相处，相处融洽"。getalong

还可用来表示“某方面的进展如何”。比较句子：

Hegetsalongwellwithhisboss.

他和他的上司相处甚好。

HowishegettingalongwithhisFrench?

他的法语学习的情况如何？

10.Yes,atleastitisn'training.

对，至少现在没有下雨。

句中atleast意为“至少"。least为little的最高级。又如:

Itwillcostatleastfivepounds.

它至少值五英镑。
