般疑问句是疑问句的一种.它是指用yes（是）或no（否）来回答的句子.其结构是：系动词be/助动词/情态动词＋主语＋其他成分?通常回答为：肯定：Yes,+主语+提问的助动词.否定：No,+主语+提问的助动词+not.如:Are you from Japan?Yes I am． ／ No I'm not． Is her sister doing her homework now?Yes she is． ／ No she isn't． Does he work in a bank?Yes he does． ／ No he doesn't． Do you live near your school?Yes I do． ／ No I don't． Can you speak French?Yes I can． ／ No I can't． May I go home now?Yes you may． ／ No you mustn't．
编辑本段注意：
1．将陈述句变为一般疑问句时,如句中有be 动词（am is are …）时,可直接将它们提至主语前.如主语为第一人称,应将其改为第二人称.如：I'm in Class 2Grade 1． → Are you in Class 2Grade We're watching TV． → Are you watching TV?2．陈述句中有情态动词（can may must …）时,也可直接将它们提至主语前,即可成为一般疑问句.如：He can swim now． → Can he swim now?The children may come with us． → May the children come with us?3．陈述句中只有一个实义动词作谓语且其时态为一般现在时,变为一般疑问句时要在句首加do或does 主语后的实义动词用原形.如：I like these animals． → Do you like these animals?She wants to go to the movies． → Does she want to go to the movies?4．一般疑问句一般读升调(↑) 5．一般疑问句有时不用yes或 no 回答.如：Are they in town now?I think so.May I sit here?Certainly． Does he like soccer?Sorry I don't know． 6.一般疑问句的第一单词总是虚词,读的时候要读轻声.二、特殊疑问句 以疑问词开头,对句中某一成分提问的句子叫特殊疑问句.常用的疑问词有：what（什么）,who（谁）,whose（谁的）,which（哪个）,when（何时）,where（哪里）,how（怎样）,why（为何）等.特殊疑问句有两种语序：1．如疑问词作主语或主语的定语,即对主语或主语的定语提问,其语序是陈述句的语序：疑问词（＋主语）＋谓语动词＋其他成分?如：who is singing in the room?whose bike is broken?2．如疑问词作其他成分,即对其他成分提问,其语序是：疑问词＋一般疑问句语序?如：what class are you in?What does she look like?Where are you from?What time does he get up every morning?How do you know?注意：1．回答特殊疑问句时,不能用yes ／ no,即问什么答什么,尤其是简略回答.括号内是完整回答所需部分.如：Who is from Canada?Helen (is from Canada)． Where's the restaurant?(It is)Near the station． Why do you like koalas?(I like koalas)Because they are cute． 2．特殊疑问句一般读降调(↓).
