下面我们作一组练习, 学学用 why don't you 向别人提出建议. 比方圣诞节快要 到了, 凯特不知道该给儿子彼得买什么圣诞礼物. 她跟亨利商量.亨利知道彼得 喜欢运动, 于是就建议说: "你为什么不给他买一根棒球棒呢?" Why don't you buy him a baseball bat? 现在我们作一组代换练习, 学学这种说法. 练习的作法 是老师先念一个句子, 接着老师提出一些运动器材的名称, 比方 "棒球面罩" baseball mask, "足球头盔" football helmet, "网球拍" tennis racket, "旱冰鞋" rollerskates, "滑雪的时候穿的外套" ski jacket, "打曲棍球用的棍子" hockey stick 等等. 请你把你听到的代换到原来的句子里. 每作完一句老师就念正确 答案给你听.
M: Why don't you buy him a baseball bat?
M: a baseball mask
F: Why don't you buy him a baseball mask?
M: baseball gloves
F: Why don't you buy him baseball gloves?
M: a football helmet
F: Why don't you buy him a football helmet?
M: a tennis racket
F: Why don't you buy him a tennis racket?
M: a ski jacket
F: Why don't you buy him a ski jacket?

M: a pair of ice skates
F: Why don't you buy him a pair of ice skates?
M: a pair of rollerskates
F: Why don't you buy him a pair of rollerskates?
刚才我们用 why don't you 作了一些反问句, 表示向别人提议. 现在我们把这 种说法跟另外一种反问句作个比较. 练习的作法是老师用 why don't you 提出 一个建议, 比方 Why don't you buy him a baseball bat? 请你把句子改成:"给他 买棒球棒不是更好吗?" Isn't it better to buy him a baseball bat? 现在我们开始 作练习, 每作完一句老师就念正确答案给你听.
M: Why don't you buy him a baseball bat?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a baseball bat?
M: Why don't you buy him a baseball mask?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a baseball mask?
M: Why don't you buy him a baseball gloves?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a baseball gloves?
M: Why don't you buy him a football helmet?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a football helmet?
M: Why don't you buy him a tennis racket?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a tennis racket?
M: Why don't you buy him a ski jacket?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a ski jacket?
M: Why don't you buy him a hockey stick?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a hockey stick?
M: Why don't you buy him a pair of ice skates?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a pair of ice skates?
M: Why don't you buy him a pair of rollerskates?
F: Isn't it better to buy him a pair of rollerskates?
三.用反问句表疑问
下面我们学学用反问句来表示对某件事情感到怀疑. 比方彼得最喜欢的球队 要跟另外一个球队打决赛, 可是他居然因为有别的事不去, 他妹妹琳达知道 了觉得很奇怪就问他说: "你难道不要给你最喜欢的球队加油吗?" Don't you want to cheer your favorite team? 当琳达发现彼得对看球赛不那么感兴趣了 就问他说: "难道你从来不想跟职业运动员一样棒吗? "Don't you ever want to be as skillful as professional athletes?
下面琳达问彼得一些问题, 请你每听一句就跟着学生把句子重复一遍.
F: Aren't you going to the championship game tonight?
M: Aren't you going to the championship game tonight?
F: Don't you want to cheer your favorite team?
M: Don't you want to cheer your favorite team?
F: Can't you change your plan and go to the game?
M: Can't you change your plan and go to the game?
F: Don't you want to be as skillful as the professional athletes?
M: Don't you want to be as skillful as the professional athletes?
F: Don't you want to be as rich as the professional athletes?
M: Don't you want to be as rich as the professional athletes?
