一般疑问句、选择疑问句的详细用法一般疑问句、（一）一般疑问句1、一般疑问句概述一般疑问句（general questions），也可称为“yes/no” questions（是否型问句），因为它一般是由yes或no回答的，如：—Can you swim to the other side？你能游到对岸吗？—Yes, I can.是的，我能。
—No，I can’t.不，我不能。
—Have you locked the door？你锁门了吗？—Yes，I have.是的，锁了。
—No，I haven’t. 不，没有锁。
2一般疑问句的结构（1）基本的结构为：be/助动词/情态动词+主语+谓语/表语+(其他),句子要读升调，如：Are they your friends？他们是你的朋友吗？Does he go to school on foot？他是步行去上学吗？Will you be free tonight？你今晚有空吗？Can you play basketball？你会打篮球吗？（2）陈述句亦可用作一般疑问句，多用在非正式文体中，句末有问号，用升调，如：Somebody is with you？有人和你一起吗？He didn’t finish the work？他没有做完活吗？You are fresh from America，I suppose？我猜，你刚从美国回来吧？3、一般疑问句的答语（1）一般疑问句一般由yes或no来回答，如：—Are you tired？你累了吗？—Yes，I am.是的,累了。
—No, I’m not.不，不累。
—Does she do the cleaning？她扫除了吗？—Yes ，she does.是的，她打扫了。
—No，she doesn’t.不，她没打扫。
（2）回答一般疑问句除了用yes或no外，也可用certainly，probably，perhaps，of course，all right，with pleasure等代替yes，用never，not at all等代替no，如：—Can you help me？你能帮个忙吗？—Certainly.当然。
—Could you please make less noise？你可以小声一点吗？—All right，sir.好的，先生。
—Have you been there？你到过那里吗？—Never.从来没有。
4、一般疑问句的否定式（1）一般疑问句的否定式，一般结构为系动词/助动词/情态动词+not+主语；也可为系动词/助动词/情态动词+主语+not，如：Do you not/Don’t you believe me? 你不相信我？Believe me？你不相信我？Is it not / Isn’t it a lovely day? 天气难道不好吗？Are you not / Aren’t you coming?你不来吗？Will you not /Won’t you sit down? 你不坐会儿吗？Is he not / Isn’t he a doctor? 他不是医生吗？Does Helen not /Doesn’t Helen like chocolate? 海伦不喜欢巧克力吗? Will he not /Won’t he go with you?他不和你一块儿去吗？（2）否定疑问句并不单纯表示提问，它常常带有感情色彩。
否定疑问句的完全式比简略式所表达的语气更强烈些。
1）否定疑问句常常带有惊异、赞叹或责难等语气，如：Haven’t you read the newspaper？你没读过这份报纸呀？Won’t he come？他不来了？2）否定疑问句有时暗示提问者期待着肯定的回答，如：Shouldn’t we start now？我们现在是不是该动身了？Wasn’t it an interesting film？那部电影是不是很有趣？3）否定疑问句有时用来表示邀请或建议，如：Wouldn’t you like to go with me？你不想和我一块儿去吗？Won’t you have a cup of coffee？你不喝杯咖啡吗？（3）否定的一般疑问句的答语中，yes的含义为“不”，no的含义为“是”，但在回答这类句子时，应该注意yes后接肯定结构，no后接否定结构，这和汉语习惯不同，如：—Are you not Mr Smith？你不是史密斯先生吗？—Yes，I am.不，我是。
—No，I am not.是的，我不是。
—Haven’t you read this book before？你从前没有读过这本书吗？—Yes，I have.不，我读过。
—No，I haven’t.是的，我没有。
—Don’t you play chess？你不下棋吗？—Yes ，I do.不，我下棋。
—No，I don’t.是的，我不下棋。
