一般將來時(shí) 過去將來時(shí)
3、直接引語變成間接引語時(shí),從句時(shí)態(tài)無須改變的情況
1)當(dāng)主句的謂語動(dòng)詞是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)的時(shí)候,如:
He always says, “I am tired out.” ——>He always says that he is tired out.
2)當(dāng)主句的謂語動(dòng)詞是將來時(shí)的時(shí)候,如:
He will say, “I’ll try my best to help you.” ——>He will say that he will try his best to help me.

4、時(shí)間狀語、地點(diǎn)狀語及某些對(duì)比性的指示代詞和動(dòng)詞變化
1)時(shí)間狀語:
直接引語 間接引語 直接引語 間接引語
now then tomorrow the next(following)day
today that day next week the next(following)week(month, year)
yesterday the day before two days ago two days before
last week (month, year) the week(month, year)before this week that week(month, year)
2)指示代詞:these 變成those
3)地點(diǎn)狀語:here變成there
She said, “I won't come here any more.”——> She said that she wouldn’t go there any more..
4)動(dòng)詞:come變成go,bring變成take
5、直接引語變成間接引語,句子結(jié)構(gòu)的變化
1)陳述句。用連詞that引導(dǎo),that在口語中常省略。主句的謂語動(dòng)詞可直用接引語中的said, 也可用told來代替,注意,可以說said that, said to sb. that, told sb. that,不可直接說told that, 如:
He said, “I have been to the Great Wall.” ——>He said to us that he had been to the Great Wall.
He said, “I'll give you an examination next Monday.”——>
He told us that he would give us an examination the next Monday.(不可說told that)
此外主句中的謂語還常有:
repeat, whisper, answer, reply, explain, announce, declare, think等,又如:
He said,“I'm late because of the heavy traffic.”——> He explained to us that he was late because of the heavy traffic.
如果間接引語是由that引導(dǎo)的兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的并列從句,第一個(gè)連詞可以省略,以后的連詞一般不省略,以免混亂。
The doctor said, “You are not seriously ill, You will be better soon.”——>
The doctor said(that)I was not seriously ill and that I would be better soon.
2)直接引語為一般疑問句,(也稱是否疑問句,)間接引語用連詞whether或if引導(dǎo),原主句中謂語動(dòng)詞said要改為asked(me/him/us等),語序是陳述句的語序,這一點(diǎn)非常重要。
He said, “Do you have any difficulty with pronunciation?”——>
He asked(me)whether/if I had any difficulty with my pronunciation.
He said, “You are interested in English, aren't you?”——>
He asked whether I was interested in English.
3) 直接引語為選擇疑問句,間接引語用whether…or…表達(dá),而不用if…or…,也不用either…or…. 如:
He asked, “Do you speak English or French?”——>
He asked me whether I spoke English or French..
I asked, “Will you take bus or take train?”——>
I asked him whether he would take bus or take train.
4)直接引語為特殊疑問句,改成間接引語時(shí),原來的疑問詞作為間接引語的連詞,主句的謂語動(dòng)詞用ask(sb.)來表達(dá),語序改為陳述句語序。如:
He asked,“What's your name?”——> He asked(me)what my name was.
He asked us, “How many car factories have been built in your country?”——>
He asked us how many car factories had been built in our country.
5)直接引語為祈使句時(shí),改為間接引語,用帶to的不定式表達(dá),謂語動(dòng)詞常是ask, advise, tell, warn, order, request等。如ask sb. to do,(由肯定祈使句變成)ask sb. not to do(由否定祈使句轉(zhuǎn)變),并且在不定式短語中的時(shí)間狀語、地點(diǎn)狀語、人稱及時(shí)態(tài)都作相應(yīng)的變化。如:
He said,“Be seated, please.”——> He asked us to be seated.
“Do be careful with your handwriting.” He said. ——>
He told me to be careful with my handwriting.
“Never come here again!” said the officer nearby. ——>
The officer ordered the villagers never to go there again.
“Don't touch anything in the lab without permission,” the teacher said. ——>
The teacher warned the students not to touch anything in the lab without permission.
6)有些含有“建議”——>、“勸告”——>的祈使句,可用suggest, insist, offer等動(dòng)詞轉(zhuǎn)述,如:
He said, “Let's have a rest.”——> He suggested our having a rest.
He said, “Let me help you.”——> He offered to help me.
7)當(dāng)直接引語形式上是疑問句,有表示請(qǐng)求,建議意義時(shí),可用ask sb. to do sth. /suggest doing/advise sb. to do sth. 等形式轉(zhuǎn)述。如:
“Would you mind opening the door?” he asked. ——>He asked me to open the door.
“Why not going out for a walk?” he asked us. ——>
He advised us to go out for a walk. 或He suggested we go out for a walk.
8)直接引語是感嘆句時(shí),變間接引語可用what或how引導(dǎo),也可用that引導(dǎo),如:
She said, “What a lovely day it is!”——> She said what a lovely day it was. 或She said that it was a lovely day.
