CHUYÊN ĐỀ: REPORTED SPEECH (LỐI NÓI GIÁN TIẾP) Tác giả: Triệu Thị Hằng Giáo viên trường THPT Vĩnh Yên Đối tượng học sinh: Lớp 12, Ôn thi ĐH – CĐ Số tiết dự kiến: 4 tiết A. PHẦN MỞ ĐẦU I. Lý do chọn chuyên đề: Ngữ pháp là một hệ thống những quy tắc kết cấu của một ngôn ngữ. Muốn nắm bắt ngôn ngữ tiếng Anh, ngoài những yếu tố khác, người học cần phải hiểu đầy đủ, sâu sắc những kiến thức ngữ pháp cơ bản và thực hành thành thạo. Trong những chuyên đề ngữ pháp, học sinh đặc biệt hứng thú với chuyên đề thể tường thuật ( Reported speech). Tuy nhiên, họ vẫn gặp không ít khó khăn trong khi thực hành lối nói gián tiếp này, đặc biệt với các dạng tường thuật câu hỏi, tường thuật hành động lời nói... Tôi nhận thấy rằng học sinh cần nắm vững kiến thức trước khi làm bài tập thì việc luyện tập mới đạt hiệu quả. Với nhận thức như vậy nên tôi tiến hành trình bày chuyên đề về “câu gián tiếp” trong tiếng Anh.

Lời nói trực tiếp: là sự lặp lại chính xác những từ của người nói. - Lời nói trực tiếp được đặt trong dấu ngoặc kép và sau động từ chính có dấu phẩy(,) hoặc dấu hai chấm(:). - Đôi khi mệnh đề chính cũng có thể đặt sau lời nói trực tiếp. Ex: “ I don’t like this party” Bill said. 2. Lời nói gián tiếp (indirect/reported speech) là lời tường thuật lại ý của người nói, đôi khi không cần phải dùng đúng những từ của người nói. Ex: Bill said that he didn’t like that party. * Thể tường thuật ( reported speech) dùng để thuật lại một lời phát ngôn trước đó. Bao gồm các loại câu tường thuật sau: - Reporting statements - Reporting questions - Reported speech with special verbs REPORTING STATEMENTS (Tường thuật câu phát ngôn) * Khi động từ chính của câu ( động từ tường thuật) ở thì hiện tại ( present tense), thì của câu phát ngôn được tường thuật lại không thay đổi. - Direct speech: “I always get up early in the morning”, my mother often says. Reported speech: My mother often says that she always gets up early in the morning. - Direct speech: text is difficult”. He says/ he is saying/ he has said/ he will say, “The Reported speech: He says/ is saying/ has said/ will say (that) the text is difficult. * Khi động từ chính của câu ở thì quá khứ, thì ngoại trừ các thì quá khứ hoàn thành và quá khứ hoàn thành tiếp diễn, thì của câu phát ngôn được tường thuật phải được lùi về quá khứ một thì so với câu trực tiếp. Direct speech: “We haven’t been to Africa ”, they said. Reported speech: They said that they hadn’t been to Africa. A. Các bước thay đổi từ câu trực tiếp sang câu gián tiếp: 1. Bắt đầu câu tường thuật bằng: * S + said + (that) + clause * S + told + O + (that) + clause Note: Trong câu tường thuật “told” (tell) có thể được dùng thay cho “said” (say). Tuy nhiên “told” luôn đòi hỏi có tân ngữ đi kèm. Ví dụ: They said (that) they had not been to Africa. They told me (that) they had not been to Africa. *Note: Có thể sử dụng một số động từ tường thuật sau: thought, announced, explained, complained, believed… 2. Bỏ dấu ngoặc kép khi tường thuật Ví dụ: He said, “They might win the game,” He said that they might win the game. 3. Các đại từ phải thay đổi: Subject I-he/she YouI/we He She It We they They You Object Possessive Adjective Mehim/her Myyou his/her him your her his it her usthem its them our-their you-me/him their your-my Possessive Pronoun Minehis/hers yours his hers its ours-theirs theirs yours-mine Reflexive Pronoun myself yourself himself herself itself ourselves themselves yourslves 4. Thay đổi một số cách nói thời gian và nơi chốn: Direct today tonight now tomorrow yesterday next (week) last (week) (three days) ago this / these here 5. Thay đổi thì: Reported that day that night then/ at once/immediately the next day / the following day the day before / the previous day the next (week) / the following (week) / the week after the (week) before / the previous week (three days) before that / those there Direct speech Present simple: Tom said,”I never eat meat” Present cont.:am/is/are + Ving He said, “I’m waiting for Ann Persent pecfect: She said, “I’ve seen that film” Present pecfect progressive Andrew said, “I’ve been learning Chinese for 5 years Past simple: They said, “We came by car” Past progressive: He said, “I was sitting in the park at 8 o’cock” Future simple: will/shall + V Judy said,”I’ll phone you” Future progressive He said,”I’ll playing golf at three o’clock tomorrow Modal verbs + Can She said,”You can sit here” + May Claire said, “I may got to Bali again” + Must He said, “I must finish this report” Reported speech Past simple: Tom said he never ate meat Past cont.: was/were + Ving He said he was waiting for Ann Past perfect: She said she had seen that film Past perfect progressive Andrew said he had been learning Chinese for 5 years Past perfect: They said they had come by car Past perfect progressive He said he had been sitting in the park at 8 o’clock Future in the past Judy said she would phone me Future progressive in the past He said he would be playing golf at three o’clock tomorrow. Modal verbs in the past + Could She said we could sit here + Might Claire said she might go to Bali again + Must / Had to He said he must / had to finish this report. B. Những trường hợp không cần thay đổi khi chuyển từ câu trực tiếp sang câu gián tiếp: 1. “must” có thể giữ nguyên hoặc đổi thành “had to” - “I must finish this report by Monday,” Jill said Jill said that she must finish that report by Monday Jill said that she had to finish that report by Monday 2. “should” và “ought to” có thể giữ nguyên hoặc tường thuật bằng cách dùng động từ “advise sb (not) to do sth” - “You should practice your English every day,” said Miss Hoax Miss Hoai said that I should practice my English every day Miss Hoai advised me to practice my English every day - “You ought not to lie in the sun for long hours, Nam,” said Bad Bad said that Nam ought not to lie in the sun for long hours Bad advised Nam not to lie in the sun for long hours 3. Khi động từ trong câu trực tiếp là các động từ khiếm khuyết sau : could, should, would, might, ought to, had to, used to. - “You needn’t do it if you don’t want,” she said She said that I needn’t do it if I didn’t want - “It would be nice if he could see you again, Pam” Mike said Mike said it would be nice if he could see Pam again - “It might be too dangerous for us to go now,” said Jack Jack said it might be too dangerous for them to go then - She said; “I could do the homework → She said the she could do the homework 4. Khi tường thuật mệnh đề ước muốn (wish); câu điều kiện loại 2( có thể thay đổi hoặc không), loại 3; và cấu trúc it’s (high/ about ) time... - He said, “I wish I were richer. ” He told me he wished he were richer. - “If I knew her number, I would tell you,” Peter said Peter said if he knew / had knew her number, he would tell / would have told me - “If you had come , you would have met many old friends,” Liz said Liz said if I had come, I would have met many old friends - He said, “It’s time we went. ” He said it was time they went. 5. Khi câu nói trực tiếp thể hiện một chân lý hoặc một hành động lặp lại thường xuyên, thì của động từ trong câu gián tiếp vẫn không thay đổi - My teacher said “The sun rises in the East” → My teacher said (that) the sun rises in the East. - He said, ‘My father always drinks coffee after dinner’ → He said (that) his father always drinks coffee after dinner 6. Động từ trong câu nói trực tiếp có thời gian xác định: - He said, “I was born in 1980” → he said that he was born in 1980. 7. Mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ thời gian trong câu phức có thì quá khứ đơn và quá khứ tiếp diễn - “I saw him when he was going to the cinema” → She said she saw him when she was going to the cinema REPORTED QUESTIONS (Tường thuật câu hỏi) Về cơ bản khi tường thuật lại một câu hỏi thì cũng có những thay đổi như tường thuật câu phát ngôn: thay đổi về thì, trạng từ và đại từ. Tuy nhiên đối với từng loại câu hỏi có thêm các thay đổi cụ thể như sau: 1. Tường thuật câu hỏi dạng Wh- questions và Yes- no questions: - Wh- questions: * S + asked + (O) + wh-… + clause * S + wondered + wh-… + clause * S + wanted to know + wh-… + clause - Yes- no questions: * S + asked + (O) + if / whether + clause * S + wondered + if /whether + clause * S + wanted to know + if / whether + clause 2. Không đảo ngữ khi tường thuật câu hỏi. 3. Bỏ dấu chấm hỏi và dấu ngoặc kép. 4. Thay đổi thì, động từ, cách nói thời gian, nơi chốn và đại từ cho phù hợp. 5. Đối với câu hỏi “Wh-questions” ta lặp lại các từ hỏi: what, where, when, who, which, how, how much, how many, how long, …. NOTE: không dùng trước chữ “that” 6. Đối với câu hỏi “Yes-No questions” dùng “if / whether/ whether......or not”. NOTE: không dùng “that” trước “if / whether” Example of wh-questions: - “What is this man saying?” He asked me what that man was saying - “When are you leaving for London” He wanted to know when I was leaving for London - “Where did you buy this bag?” She wondered where I had bought that bag - “Who phoned you last night?” She asked who ahd phoned me the night before - “Why is Mary crying?” He wondered why Mary was crying - “How long have you been working here?” - “How far is it to your hometown?” He wanted to know how har it was to my hometown. Example of yes-no questions: - “Do you often go out in the evening?” He asked if/whether I often went out in the evening - “Is your wife a good cook?” “She wanted to know if/whether my wife was a good cook. - “Have you ever been to South America?” He asked if/whether I had ever been to South America. - “Did your father go to college?” He wondered if/whether my father had gone to college - “Was Kate waiting for you at the airport?” He asked if/whether Kate had been waiting for me at the airport - “Can you swim across this river?” He wondered if/whether I could swim across that river - “Will you come home late today?” She wanted to know if/whether I would come home late that day. - “Have you locked the door yet ?”, the mother asked her son. The mother asked her son if he had locked the door yet. The mother asked her son whether he had locked the door or not. • Note: Câu hỏi đuôi được tường thuật giống như câu hỏi Yesno nhưng phải bỏ phần đuôi phía sau: Ví dụ: She asked me, “You will stay here, won’t you ?” She asked me if/ whether I would stay there. Tóm tắt Statements (Câu phát biểu) Commands (Câu mệnh lệnh) Wh-questions (Câu hỏi nội dung) Yes-no questions (Câu hỏi có không) Câu gián tiếp * S + said + (that) + clause * S + told + O + (that) + clause * S + told + O + to infinitive * S + told + O + not + to infinitive * S + asked + (O) + wh-… + clause * S + wondered + wh-… + clause * S + wanted to know + wh-… + clause * S + asked + (O) + if / whether + clause * S + wondered + if /whether + clause * S + wanted to know + if / whether + clause REPORTED SPEECH WITH SPECIAL VERBS (Câu tường thuật với các động từ đặc biệt) Để tường thuật chính xác các câu thể hiện hành động lời nói ( các câu phát ngôn quen thuộc dùng để diễn tả một chức năng giao tiếp cụ thể.
