语法说明
【if】 【whether】
Both if and whether are used in reporting questions which expect ‘yes’ or ‘no’ as the answer if和whether均用于要求以yes或no作答的转述疑问句中:
She asked if/whether I wanted a drink.
她问我要不要喝点什么。
although whether sounds more natural with particular verbs such as discuss , consider and decide . When a choice is offered between alternatives if or whether can be used. 不过whether与discuss、consider和decide等动词连用听起来更自然。提供选择时用if或whether均可:
We didn’t know if/whether we should write or phone.
我们不知道是写信好还是打电话好。
In this last type of sentence, whether is usually considered more formal and more suitable for written English. 在最后这一句型中,一般认为whether较正式,更适用于书面英语。 - 03
