A: Room twenty-six.
在这个例子中,B用降调说 Yes,表示B的认可,这是一个封闭式的回答。这表明如果A没有新的问题要问或新的信息要告知,也许他们的对话就可以结束了。
A: Are you Mr. Blake?
B: Yes?(↗)
A: Ah, the secretarywould like a word with you.
在这个例子中,B用升调回答 Yes,表示这是一个开放式的回答,相当于 "Yes. But why do you ask?" 或是 "Yes. But who want to know?" 之意。这也就是说,B在回答A的问题的同时又向A提出了一个新问题,并要求A予以回答。
掌握了这一点之后,对于下面的对话就不难理解了:
M: How long shall we stay at the Grand Canyon?
W: A day?(↗)
Q: What does the woman mean?
(A) We shall stay at the Grand Canyon for one day.
(B) Shall we stay at the Grand Canyon for one day?
(C) To stay at the Grand Canyon for one day is too short.
(D) To stay at the Grand Canyon for one day is enough.
正确的答案是B哦。
4.陈述句式一般读降调,用以陈述事实。若读升调,往往表示对所说事情的怀疑。如:
She lent him her car.(↙)(用以陈述事实)
She lent him her car?(↗)(表示惊奇、的怀疑,含有 "Did she really lend her car to him ?" 之意。)
5.有些一般疑问句的句式读作降调,实际上表示感叹。如:
