8.3 Reply questions

(Câu hỏi đáp trả)

We use a reply question to respond to a statement. They express interest or surprise.

“I've bought a new bike.”

“Have you? How could you afford it?”

We use the verb be, auxiliary verbs (do, have), or modal verbs (will, would, etc.), depending on the tense and verb form in the statement.

'He hasn't seen that film.

'Hasn't he? Well, let's rent it, then.'

'I hate cats'

'Do you? I thought you liked them."

Notice these special cases:

I'm not hungry. "Aren't you?' NOT Amn't you? X

"You never invite me to your house." "Don't I?"

"Nothing bad happened." "Didn't it?"

'Nobody wants to sit next to me.' 'Don't they?"

Tạm dịch

Chúng ta sử dụng một câu hỏi đáp trả để trả lời một tuyên bố. Họ thể hiện sự quan tâm hoặc ngạc nhiên.

“Tôi đã mua một chiếc xe đạp mới.”

“Có thật không? Làm thế nào bạn có thể đủ khả năng đó?

Chúng ta sử dụng động từ be, trợ động từ (do, have), hoặc động từ khuyết thiếu (will, would, v.v.), tùy thuộc vào thì và dạng của động từ trong câu.

'Anh ấy chưa xem bộ phim đó.

'Phải không? Vậy thì chúng ta hãy thuê nó.

' Em ghét mèo'

'Thật hả? Anh tưởng em thích chúng."

Lưu ý những trường hợp đặc biệt này:

Tôi không đói. "Phải không?" (Aren’t you)  KHÔNG DÙNG dạng Amn’t you?X

"Anh không bao giờ mời tôi đến nhà anh." "phải không?"

"Không có gì xấu xảy ra." "Phải không?"

'Không ai muốn ngồi cạnh tôi.' “Phải không?”

1 Match the reply questions (a-e) with the statements (1-5).

(Ghép các câu hỏi phản hồi (a-e) với các câu (1-5).)

2 Write reply questions for these statements.

(Viết câu hỏi phản hồi cho những câu nói này.)

1 I want to go somewhere different for my holiday this year.

2 Nobody told me about your accident.

3 I'm not ready to go out yet.

4 Our friends hardly ever go out during the week.

5 It costs a lot to send texts abroad.

6 Gorillas can't swim.

7 I'd rather spend this weekend at home.

8 My parents wouldn't enjoy skiing.

8.4 Question tags

(Câu hỏi đuôi)

We use question tags when we want somebody to confirm something that we are saying. A statement with a question tag often sounds more polite than a direct question or a plain statement.

You live in Madrid, don't you?

When the main verb is affirmative, the question tag is negative, and vice versa.

She was late, wasn't she?

She wasn't late, was she?

We use the verb be, auxiliary verbs (do, have), or modal verbs (will, would, etc.), depending on the tense of the verb in the statement.

Notice these special cases:

I'm the winner, aren't I?

It hardly ever rains here, does it?

Let's go to the park, shall we?

Nothing's wrong, is it?

Nobody minds if I eat the last piece, do they?

Tạm dịch

Chúng ta sử dụng câu hỏi đuôi khi muốn ai đó xác nhận điều gì đó mà chúng ta đang nói. Một câu nói với một câu hỏi đuôi thường nghe lịch sự hơn một câu hỏi trực tiếp hoặc một câu nói đơn giản.

Bạn sống ở Madrid, phải không?

Khi động từ chính ở thể khẳng định thì câu hỏi đuôi ở thể phủ định và ngược lại.

Cô đến muộn phải không?

Cô ấy không đến trễ, phải không?

Chúng ta sử dụng động từ be, trợ động từ (do, have), hoặc động từ khuyết thiếu (will, would, v.v.), tùy thuộc vào thì của động từ trong câu.

Lưu ý những trường hợp đặc biệt này:

Tôi là người chiến thắng, phải không?

Ở đây hầu như không bao giờ mưa, phải không?

Chúng ta hãy đi đến công viên, nhỉ?

Không có gì sai, phải không?

Không ai phiền nếu tôi ăn miếng cuối cùng, phải không?

Question tags

(Câu hỏi đuôi)

Question tags are short phrases added at the end of statements. They are used to check if something is true or not.

•  A positive statement takes a negative question tag. He's a volunteer, isn't he?

• A negative statement takes a positive question tag. You don't work here, do you?

We form a question tag with the correct form of to be / auxiliary verb / modal verb + subject pronoun.

He's a volunteer, isn't he?

You haven't sent Josh an email about the healthcare project, have you?

Joe and Jack can attend the party raising money for poor countries, can't they?

If the statement doesn't have the verb to be, an auxiliary verb or a modal verb, we use don't, doesn't for the present simple and didn't for the past simple.

Mary knows about the new free medical centre, doesn't she?

You sent the job application form to a company in Vietnam, didn't you?

In question tags, we use falling intonation (æ) when we are sure of the answer and rising intonation (ä) when we aren't sure and want to check the answer.

Jessica is looking for a job, isn't she (ä)?

The event started at 4 p.m., didn't it (æ)?

Tạm dịch

Câu hỏi đuôi là những cụm từ ngắn được thêm vào cuối câu. Chúng được sử dụng để kiểm tra xem điều gì đó có đúng hay không.

• Một câu khẳng định có một câu hỏi đuôi phủ định. Anh ấy là tình nguyện viên phải không?

• Câu phủ định dùng câu hỏi đuôi khẳng định. Bạn không làm việc ở đây, phải không?

Chúng ta tạo thành một câu hỏi đuôi với dạng đúng của to be / trợ động từ / động từ khuyết thiếu + đại từ chủ ngữ.

Anh ấy là tình nguyện viên phải không?

Bạn chưa gửi cho Josh một email về dự án chăm sóc sức khỏe phải không?

Joe và Jack có thể tham dự bữa tiệc gây quỹ cho các nước nghèo, phải không?

Nếu câu không có động từ to be, trợ động từ hoặc động từ khuyết thiếu, chúng ta dùng don't, don't cho thì hiện tại đơn và did't cho thì quá khứ đơn.

Mary biết về trung tâm y tế miễn phí mới, phải không?

Bạn đã gửi đơn xin việc cho một công ty ở Việt Nam phải không?

Trong câu hỏi đuôi, chúng ta sử dụng ngữ điệu đi xuống (æ) khi chúng ta chắc chắn về câu trả lời và ngữ điệu đi lên (ä) khi chúng ta không chắc chắn và muốn kiểm tra câu trả lời.

Jessica đang tìm việc phải không (ä)?

Sự kiện bắt đầu lúc 4 giờ chiều phải không (æ)?
