B/ Procedures:
I/ GRAMMAR:
1.Câu hỏi đuôi là phần thêm vào sau mệnh đề chính để xác định ý nghĩa của mệnh đề chính có
đúng không, thờng đợc dùng trong tiếng Anh nói: Có 2 dạng câu hỏi đuôi:
1.1. Positive statement + Negative tag ( Câu khẳng định + đuôi phủ định ) - It is very cold, isn't it ?
- They go to school by bus, don't they ?
1.2. Negative statement +Positive tag ( Câu phủ định + đuôi khẳng định ) - I shouldn't do it, should I ?
- They don't like it, do they ? Notes:
Câu chia làm hai thành phần tách biệt nhau bởi dấu phẩy.
Nếu động từ ở thành phần chính chia ở thể khẳng định thì động từ ở phần đuôi chia ở thể phủ
định và ngợc lại.
Thời của động từ ở đuôi phải theo thời của động từ ở mệnh đề chính.
Trong câu hỏi đuôi, các trợ động từ do/ does/ did (n't) và đại từ I, We, He.... thờng đợc dùng.
Nếu V ở MĐ chính là V đặc biệt be/ can/ could/ may/ might thì ở phần hỏi đuôi nó đợc sở dụng lại. ( nhớ phải cùng thời )
He can play the piano, can't he ?
* Nếu V dùng thì kép → Vaux sẽ dùng ở câu hỏi đuôi.
You haven't met the girl, have you ?
* I am..., aren't I ? ( chứ không dùng am I not ?) - I'm late, aren't I ?
* Nghĩa của câu trả lời Yes và No cho câu phủ định:
You 're not America, are you ? ( Bạn không phải là ngời Mỹ à ) Yes/ Yes, I am . ( Vâng, tôi là ngời Mỹ )
No/ No, I'm not ( Không, tôi không phải là ngời Mỹ )
Các thành ngữ there is, there are và it is đợc dùng lại ở phần đuôi.
Trong tiếng Anh của ngời Mỹ, to have là động từ thờng, do vậy nó phải dùng với trợ động từ to do.
Ex1: You have two children, don't you ? Ex2: He should stay in bed, shouldn't he ?
Ex3: She has been studying English for two years, hasn't she ?
*Lu ý: khi sử dụng loại câu hỏi này nên nhớ rằng ngời hỏi chỉ nhằm để khẳng định ý kiến của mình đã biết chứ không nhằm để hỏi. Do đó phải dựa vào thể động từ của mệnh đề chính chứ không dựa vào thể động từ ở phần đuôi.
John can get Mary to play this, can’t he?
Correct answer: John believes that Mary will play this for us.
2/ Use :
2.1/ Nghĩa của câu hỏi đuôi phụ thuộc vào cách chúng ta nói.
* Nếu chúng ta xuống giọng thì không thực sự muốn hỏi, mà chỉ muốn ngời nghe đồng tình.
- It's a nice day, isn't it ? – Yes, lovely.
- You don't look well , do you ? – No, I'm very tired.
* Nếu lên giọng thì đó là câu hỏi thực sự:
- You haven't known this man, have you ? – No, I have'nt - She's intelligent, isn't she ? - I don't think so.
2.2. Nếu S là '' nobody/ somebody/ everybody/ no one ta dùng'' they '' thay chúng ở câu hỏi đuôi.
- Somebody will do it, won't they ?
2.3. Nếu trong câu có trạng từ phủ định nh: never, no, nobody, hardly, scarcely, little... thì ta dùng thể khẳng địng trong câu hỏi đuôi.
- She never helps anyone, does she ? - Nobody liked the film, did they?
Nếu S là '' nothing'' ta dùng '' it '' thay cho nó ở câu hỏi đuôi.
- Nothing can happen, can it ?
2.4. Dùng trong câu yêu cầu và đề nghị:
* Sau câu mệnh lệnh khẳng định ta dùng ''won't you'' để mời ai làm gì.
- Sit down, won't you ?
Ta dùng '' can you / can't you/ could you/ will you/ would you '' để bảo ai làm gì.
- Do me a favor, could/ can you ?
* Sau câu mệnh lệnh phủ định, đuôi thờng là '' will you '' - Don't ever do that again, will you ?
* Let's ..., shall we ?
- Let's go for a coffee, shall we ? II/ EXERCISES:
