初中英語疑問代詞語法解析

指人: who, whom, whose

指物: what

既可指人又可指物: which

2.疑問代詞在句中應位於謂語動詞之前,沒有性和數的變化,除who之外也沒有格的變化。what, which, whose還可作限定詞。試比較:

疑問代詞:Whose are these books on the desk?桌上的書是誰的?

What was the directional flow of U. S. territorial expansion? 美國的領土擴張是朝哪個方向的?

限定詞:Whose books are these on the desk?桌上的書是誰的'?

What events led to most of the east of the Mississippi River becoming part of the United States? 哪些事件使密西西比河以東的大部分土地歸屬於美國?

說明1:

無論是做疑問代詞還是限定詞,which 和 what 所指的範圍不同。what所指的範圍是無限的,而which則指在一定的範圍內,例如:Which girls do you like best? 你喜歡哪幾個姑娘?

What girls do you like best?

你喜歡什麼樣的姑娘?

說明2:

Whom是who的賓格,在書面語中,它作動詞賓語或介詞賓語,在口語中作賓語時,可用who代替,但在介詞後只能用whom, 例如:

Who(m) did you meet on the street?

你在街上遇到了誰?(作動詞賓語)

Who(m) are you taking the book to?

你要把這書帶給誰?(作介詞賓語,置句首)

To whom did you speak on the campus?

你在校園裏和誰講話了?(作介詞賓語,置介詞 後,不能用who取代。)

說明3:

疑問代詞用於對介詞賓語提問時,過去的文體中介詞和疑問代詞通常一起放在句首,現代英語中,疑問代詞在句首,介詞在句未,例如:

For what do most people live and work?

大部分人生活和工作的目的是什麼?(舊文體)

What are you looking for?

你在找什麼?(現代英語)

說明4:

疑問代詞還可引導名詞性從句,例如:

I can't make out what he is driving at.

我不知道他用意何在。

Can you tell me whose is the blue shirt on the bed?

你能告訴我牀上的藍襯衣是誰的嗎?

Much of what you say I agree with, but I cannot go all the way with you.

你說的我大部分同意,但並不完全贊同。
