关于请求和命令的句式我不太分得清。比如:
Carry it upstairs.
Please carry it upstairs.
Will you carry it upstairs?
Will you please carry it upstairs?
这些句子如何区分它们是表示请求还是命令?
▲网友的四个句子除最后一句外,均表示命令,不表示请求:
Carry it upstairs.(生硬的命令)
Please carry it upstairs.(稍为客气的命令)
Will you carry it upstairs?(更客气的命令)
Will you please carry it upstairs?(介于客气的命令与请求之间)
若要清楚地表示请求,可用:
Would you please carry it upstairs?
Could you please carry it upstairs?
Would you kindly carry it upstairs?
▲附:参考观点
以下内容摘自《牛津英语用法指南》:
请注意:用please并不能把命令变成请求。试比较:
Stand over there. 站到那边去。 (命令)
Please stand over there. 请站到那边去。 (客气些的命令)
Could you stand overthere, please? 您请站到那边,行吗? (有礼貌的请求)
关于请求和命令的句式我不太分得清。比如:
Carry it upstairs.(祈使句)
Please carry it upstairs.(祈使句)
Will you carry it upstairs?(表示客气委婉语气)
Will you please carry it upstairs?(表示客气委婉语气)
这些句子如何区分它们是表示请求还是命令?
表示客气委婉语气还有下列句型供你参考
表示客气和委婉的请求的句型
【1】 Would you mind + doing …? 你介意……吗?请你……可以吗?需注意:mind + doing(为动名词)。动名词的否定式由“not + 动名词”构成。即Would you mind not doing…?请不要……好吗?
Would you mind moving your bike? 请把你单车挪动一下好不好?
---Would you mind cleaning your room? 打扫房间你介意吗?
---I am sorry. I’ll clean it in a minute. 对不起,我马上就去做。
---Would you mind not wearing the old jeans? 不穿旧的牛仔裤好吗?
---OK, I’ll put on another pair. 好,我将穿另一条。
---Would you mind not playing football here?
请不要在这儿踢足球好吗?
---I’m sorry. 对不起(当然不介意)。
【2】would的常用句型:
would作为情态动词,主要用于第二人称的疑问句中,表示询问对方的意愿或者向对方提出请求,时间指现在或者将来。would的语气要比will更加婉转和客气。
常用的句型除“Would you mind doing…?”之外,还有:
1. Would you please…? 请……可以吗?
2. Would you like…? 需要……吗?
3 Would you like to…? 你愿意……吗?
4. Could you please do something? 请你做某事可以吗?
5. What about doing …? ……怎么样?
6. Shall we do …? 我们做……吧?
7. You’d better do…. 你最好做……。
8. Let’s do…. 让我们做……。
【3】回答Do/Would you mind…? 等提出的问题时,表示允许要说No或Not at all等;如果介意要做肯定回答Yes. 或I’m sorry, but I do.等。
例如:
--- Do you mind if I ask you a question? 我可以问你的一个问题吗?
--- No,please do. 可以,请问吧。
【4】could表示礼貌请求的用法:
could是can的过去式,但在语气上要更加委婉、更加客气。正式的场合下,为了表示礼貌,常说“Could I … please?”“我可以……吗?”肯定回答多用Sure. / Certainly. / Yes, you can.,否定回答多用I’m afraid not. / No, you can’t.
--- Could I have a talk with Mr. Smith, please?
--- Certainly.
---我可以与Mr. Smith谈话吗?
---当然可以。
--- Could I take the seat? 我能坐这个座位吗?
--- I’m afraid not. 恐怕不能。
