He said they would go to Beijing ,__?A.wouldn't they B.didn't he

Answer 1

反意疑问句的构成有以下几点特殊情况须注意：
1．当陈述句的主语是everyone,
everybody,
someone,
somebody时，简短问句中的主语通常用they。如果陈述句的主语是非人称的复合词，如everything,
something,
anything,
则简短问句中相应的人称代词是单数的中性词it。例如:
Somebody
borrowed
my
coat
yesterday,
didn’t
they?
Nobody
came,
did
they?
Everyone
thinks
they’re
the
center
of
the
universe,
don’t
they?
Nothing
can
stop
us
now,
can
it?
2．当陈述句是表示存在的句子时，简短问句用there
作形式主语。例如:
There
isn’t
a
book
on
the
table,
is
there?
There’s
something
wrong,
isn’t
there?
There
won’t
be
any
trouble,
will
there?
3．如果陈述句中包含有如下的否定或半否定词,
如seldom,
hardly,
never,
rarely,little,
few,
nowhere,
nothing，则简短问句通常用肯定形式。但如果陈述句中仅包含有否定前缀，则简短问句中用否定形式。例如：
He
was
unsuccessful,
wasn’t
he?
The
rules
are
invariable,
aren’t
they?
He
seldom
pays
more
attention
to
his
pronunciation,
does
he?
He
hardly
knows
anything
about
computer,
does
he?
Tom
has
little
knowledge
of
how
to
spend
money,
does
he?
4．陈述句中是I
am时，简短问句则用aren’t
I。例如:
I
am
an
excellent
English
speaker,
aren’t
I?
I
am
late,
aren’t
I
?
5．陈述句中是非限定人称代词one时，正式文体中，简短问句的主语为one，而非正式文体中用you。例如:
One
must
be
honest,
mustn’t
one?
6．含有宾语从句的主从复合句的反意疑问句中，简短问句一般反映主句中主、谓之间的关系。但如果主句是I
think,
I
suppose,
I
believe,
I
suspect,
I
imagine
等时，则简短问句反映的是that从句中主语与谓语之间的关系。例如：
They
agreed
that
the
United
States
shouldn’t
make
a
war
on
Iraq,
didn’t
they?
I
suppose
(that)
he
is
serious,
isn’t
he?
注意：否定词移位的情况，如：
I
don’t
suppose
(that)
he
is
serious,
is
he?
7．如果陈述句的谓语动词是have
(当
“拥有”讲时),
简短问句可用have形式或用do形式。例如：
You
have
a
nice
house,
haven’t/don’t
you?
但如果陈述句是否定形式时，简短问句中动词的选择则由陈述句中的动词形式而定。例如：
He
hasn’t
a
house
of
his
own,
has
he?
He
doesn’t
have
a
house
of
his
own,
does
he?
如果陈述句中的动词
have
表示“经历，遭受，得到，吃”的意思时，则简短问句中的动词用
do的形式。例如：
You
often
have
headaches,
don’t
you?
8．当陈述句的动词是ought
to时，英国英语中简短问句用ought，而美国英语中则用should。
9．陈述句中的动词是used
to时，简短问句可用used
的形式或did的形式。例如:
The
Smiths
used
to
live
in
the
countryside,
usedn’t
/
didn’t
they?
He
didn’t
use/used
to
tell
lies,
did
he?
10.陈述句中动词为needn’t时，简短问句通常用
need。例如:
You
needn’t
do
it
if
you
don’t
want
to,
need
you?
You
needn’t
have
told
him
the
news,
need
you?
11.陈述句中must后动词的类属和时态不同，反意疑问句也不同。例如:
The
food
must
be
good,
isn’t
it?
You
must
have
read
the
book
last
month,
didn't
you?
You
must
see
the
doctor,
needn’t
you?（must表必要性，故用needn’t）
You
mustn’t
do
that
again,
must
you?(must表示“不可以”）
12.当陈述部分是一祈使句时，简短问句则通常为
won’t
you,
would
you,
can
you,
can’t
you,
could
you等，使语气婉转、客气。如果陈述部分的祈使句中含有第
一人称时，如Let’s
do
something,
则简短问句为
shall
we?例如:
Do
sit
down,
won’t
you?
Shut
up,
can
you?
在否定的祈使句后，
只能用will
you。例如:
Don’t
forget,
will
you?
