Reported questions 间接引语问句
When we report what people say, we usually change the tense of the verbs to reflect that we are reporting – not giving direct speech. This pattern is followed when we report Questions and there are also other important changes between direct questions and reported questions.
当我们要转述别人说的话，我们通常要改变动词的时态以表明这是转述—不给出直接语气。在我们表达转述的疑问句的时候，这种模式同样适用，还有一些其他的重要改变介乎直接疑问句和间接引语问句之间。
Yes/no questions 一般疑疑问句
Direct question:"Do you like working in teams?"
直接疑问句: “Do you like working in teams?”
Reported question: He asked if I like working in teams.
间接引语问句: He asked if I like working in teams.
When we report yes/no questions we use ‘if’ or ‘whether’.
当我们转述一般疑疑问句的时候，我们用if或者whether
• Direct question:Did you enjoy the party?
直接疑问句: “Did you enjoy the party?”
Reported questionen:She asked me whether I’d enjoyed the party.
间接引语问句:She asked me whether I’d enjoyed the party.
The tense of the verb changes as it does in reported speech but we don’t use auxiliary verbs. The word order is the same as in an affirmative sentence.
随着转述的语气改变，动词的时态也改变了，但是我们不使用助动词。在肯定句里，词的顺序是不变的。
Questions with a question word 带疑问词的疑问句
• Direct question:"What time does the train leave?”
直接疑问句: “What time does the train leave?”
Reported question:He asked what time the train left.
间接引语问句: He asked what time the train left.
When there is a question word (what, where, why, who, when, how) we use that question word in the reported question but there is no auxiliary verb and the word order is like an affirmative sentence (‘what time the train left’ not He asked me what time did the train leave.)
当句子是带疑问词(what, where, why, who, when, how)的疑问句，我们在间接引语问句里要用那个疑问词，但是没有去掉助动词，而单词的顺序要按照肯定句的模式。(是‘what time the train left’ 而不是 He asked me what time did the train leave.)
Look at some more examples:
看看更多的例句：
• Direct question: “Who did you see?”• Reported question: She asked me who I’d seen.
• Direct question: “Where did you go to school?”
• Reported question: He asked me where I’d gone to school.
• Direct question: “Why are you crying?”
• Reported question: She asked him why he was crying.
Notice that the reported questions do not have a question mark at the end.
注意，间接引语问句结尾不用问号。
indirect questions 间接疑问句
Similar to reported questions are indirect questions.
跟间接引语问句相似的是间接疑问句。
• Can you tell me what time the train leaves? NOT Can you tell me what time does the train leave?• I’d love to know what he said to her. NOT I’d love to know what did he say to her.
