提問句型
提問是讓英語對話持續下去最重要的能力。英語問句主要有三種：Wh- 問句（問資訊）、Yes/No 問句（問是或不是），以及更禮貌的間接問句（Do you know...? / Could you tell me...?）。華語學習者最常見的錯誤是忘記把助動詞放到主詞前面，例如說成 Where you live?。
Wh- 問句：問具體資訊
結構：疑問詞 + 助動詞（do / does / did / is / are / can）+ 主詞 + 動詞？ 語調通常下降。
| 疑問詞 | 例句 | 中文 |
|---|---|---|
| What | What do you do for a living? | 你做什麼工作？ |
| Where | Where did you grow up? | 你在哪裡長大？ |
| When | When does the store open? | 店幾點開？ |
| Who | Who are you going with? | 你要跟誰去？ |
| Why | Why did you choose this job? | 你為什麼選擇這份工作？ |
| How | How did you learn English? | 你怎麼學英文的？ |
| How long | How long have you lived here? | 你住這裡多久了？ |
| How often | How often do you exercise? | 你多久運動一次？ |
| Which | Which one would you recommend? | 你推薦哪一個？ |
Yes/No 問句：問是或不是
結構：助動詞或 be 動詞 + 主詞 + ……？ 語調通常上揚。
| 例句 | 中文 |
|---|---|
| Do you like spicy food? | 你喜歡吃辣嗎？ |
| Are you coming to the party? | 你會來派對嗎？ |
| Have you ever been to Japan? | 你去過日本嗎？ |
| Can you swim? | 你會游泳嗎？ |
| Did you sleep well? | 你睡得好嗎？ |
間接問句：更禮貌的問法
在問題前面加上 Do you know...? 或 Could you tell me...?，語氣會更客氣，適合問陌生人或在職場使用。注意：後面的問句要改回直述句語序（主詞在動詞前面）。
| 直接問句 | 間接問句 |
|---|---|
| Where is the restroom? | Do you know where the restroom is? |
| What time does the meeting start? | Could you tell me what time the meeting starts? |
| Is this seat free? | Do you know if this seat is free? |
附加問句：確認或邀請回應
附加問句（Tag Question）放在直述句後面，用來確認或讓對方表示同意。肯定句接否定附加問句，否定句接肯定附加問句。
- It's a nice day, isn't it?（天氣很好，對吧？）
- You're from Taipei, aren't you?（你是台北人，對吧？）
- You don't eat meat, do you?（你不吃肉，對吧？）
讓對話延續的追問
| 英文 | 中文 |
|---|---|
| How about you? | 那你呢？ |
| What was that like? | 那是什麼感覺？ |
| What do you mean? | 你的意思是？ |
| Really? Tell me more. | 真的嗎？多說一點。 |
| What happened next? | 後來呢？ |
