二.间接引句复习 (来源：英语聊天室 http://chat.EnglishCN.com)

从上面的几个句子你可以看出间接引句的一些规则,有一些我们在上一课已经 学过; 有些我们今天要学. (来源：英语交友 http://friends.englishcn.com)

首先我们复习上一课教过的. 第一组练习是由彼得或是凯特说几句话, 然后由 别人引述一遍, 请你注意听. (来源：英语麦当劳－英语快餐EnglishCN.com)

M: Henry is going to stay for the afternoon shift. (来源：英语麦当劳－英语杂志 EnglishCN.com)

F: Peter said that Henry was going to stay for the afternoon shift.

(来源：英语资料下载 http://download.englishcn.com)

M: He will be busy in the afternoon.

F: Peter said that Henry would be busy in the afternoon.

(来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

M: He can't come home for dinner.

F: Peter said that Henry couldn't come home for dinner.

(来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

F: Is Henry tired? (来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

M: Kate asked if Henry was tired. (来源：英语电影下载 http://bt.englishcn.com)

F: Is Henry hurt?

M: Kate asked whether Henry was hurt. (来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

三.引述疑问句 (来源：英语麦当劳－英语学习门户 EnglishCN.com)

听了上面一组练习, 我想你对我们上一课教过的间接引句已经有了印象, 尤其 是怎么样引述问句. 现在我们来学习怎么样引述用疑问词.比方 "为什么" why, "哪儿" where, "什么时候" when 开头的疑问句. 如果有人问你: "你什么时候下 班?" When are you going to be off duty? 在引述这句话的时候你就应该这么说:

(来源：EnglishCN英语问答中心[e问e答])

Someone asked me when I was going to be off duty. 请你注意, 因为有疑问词, 所以在间接引句里疑问词代替了我们以前学过 if, whether, 或是 that, 但是仍 然必须把问句改为过去时态陈述句. 我再举一个例子, 比方有人问你:"怎么样 才能作救火员?" How can one be a fire fighter? 在引述这句话的时候你就应该 这么说: Someone asked me how one could be a fire fighter. (来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

现在我们作一组练习,学学这种说法.练习的作法是由凯特问一些有关亨利跟 其他救火员的情况的问题, 然后学生就把凯特的话引述一遍. 在学生 作练习 的时候请你也一起作. (来源：EnglishCN英语问答中心[e问e答])

F: Why isn't Henry coming home for dinner?

(来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

M: Kate asked why Henry wasn't coming home for dinner.

(来源：EnglishCN英语问答中心[e问e答])

M: Kate asked when Henry was coming home. (来源：英语学习门户网站EnglishCN.com)

下面一组练习的内容是说彼得问母亲凯特怎么样才能够像父亲亨利一样作个 救火员. 彼得提出了许多问题. 凯特都一一回答, 比方凯特告诉彼得作救火员 必须小心, 镇静, 必须随时准备救火, 一有必要就得上夜班等等. 练习的作法是 你会先听到一个疑问词开头的疑问句, 比方彼得问: How can one be a fire fighter? 听了之后请你把话引述一遍,所以答案就是: Peter asked how one could be a fire fighter. 如果你听到的不是问句, 而是陈述句, 比方凯特回答: "他们需 要小心, 镇静." One needs to be careful and calm. 在引述的时候你就必须这么

说: Kate answered that one needed to be careful and calm. 现在我们开始作练习, 每作完一句, 就请你听老师念正确答案. (来源：英语麦当劳 http://www.EnglishCN.com)

M: How can one be a fire fighter?

刚才我们引述的句子本身都是现在时态. 所以在引述的时候必须把动词或助 动词改为过去时态. 如果你要引述的句子是现在完成时态或是过去时态, 那 么在引述的时候就应该用had, h-a-d,had加上动词的过去分词或是用 had been 加上动词的过去分词把时态改为过去完成时态. 比方凯特问亨利: "发生了什 么事?" What happened? 在引述这句话的时候就应该这么说:Kate asked what had happened. 再举一个例子, 比方凯特问亨利: "有多少人受伤情况严重?" How many people were in critical condition? 引述那句话的时候就应该这么

(来源：英语麦当劳－英语快餐EnglishCN.com)

说: Kate asked how many people had been in critical condition. 下面我们作一 组练习,学学这种说法.练习的内容是说亨利救火之后回到家里, 凯特问他有 关火灾的种种情况,比方受伤的人被送进哪家医院,多少楼房被烧坏或是全部 烧毁, 火灾多久才被扑灭等等. 这些问题亨利都一一答覆. 练习的作法跟刚才 一样,还是每作完一句就请你听正确答案. (来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

四.听短文回答问题 (来源：英语麦当劳－英语学习门户 EnglishCN.com)

今天我们要听的文章是说亨利在西雅图市政府作救火员, 文章里除了谈到救 火员的责任, 比方如何随时准备救火, 还提到救火员必须要冒着危险进入燃 烧中的房屋去救人, 有的时候接到火警赶到现场才发现有人谎报等等.文章最 后一段还说到凯特对亨利作救火员有什么感想. (来源：英语学习门户网站EnglishCN.com)

现在请你注意听.

Henry is an employee of the city of Seattle. He is one of more than 2,000 fire fighters there.

(来源：英语麦当劳www.EnglishCN.com)

Seattle had a major fire nearly 100 years ago when most of the city burned to the ground.

(来源：英语学习门户网站EnglishCN.com)

Henry and his fellow fire fighters don't want that to happen again.

(来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

Henry is on duty eight hours a day. During his shift, he eats and sleeps at the fire house. (来源：EnglishCN英语博客基地)

Fire fighters have to be ready to answer an alarm at any hour of the day or night. Most of the alarms are for small fires which can be put out in a few minutes. There are also a few fake alarms, when the fire fighters arrive to find that there isn't any fire at all. Big fires are very dangerous. Most of the time the greatest danger comes from smoke. Sometimes, Henry has to enter burning buildings to rescue people inside. He has been in serious danger many times to save people's lives. (来源：英语交友 http://friends.englishcn.com)

Kate is proud of Henry for his work, but she worries about his safety. Henry feels that his job isn't dangerous if he is careful and stays calm. He also needs to stay in good shape too.
