Step 3 Grammar

I. Exclamatory sentence 感叹句

用来表达喜悦、赞叹、惊异、愤怒、厌恶等较为强烈感情的句子叫作感叹句。感叹句一般用what或how引导，句末用感叹号。what修饰名词，how修饰形容词或副词。感叹句的常用结构如下：

一、what引导的感叹句有三种形式：

◆What + a / an +形容词+可数名词单数

（+主语+谓语）! 如：

What a lovely boy (Tom is)!

◆What+形容词+可数名词复数（+主语+谓语）! 如：

What beautiful pictures (they are)!

◆What +形容词+不可数名词（+主语+谓语）! 如：

What delicious meat (it is)! 二、how引导的感叹句通常只有一种形式：

How+形容词

/ 副词（+主语+谓语）! 如：

How happy the children were! How carefully he is reading!

提示: 一般情况下，以what和how开头的感叹句可以相互转换，转换后意义不变。如： What a tall building it is! = How tall the building is!

根据句意从括号内选出适当的一项填空。

(1) ______(What / What a) delicious chicken we are having! (2) ______(What / How) warm it is in the classroom!

(3) ________(What / What a) nice shirt you bought! (4) _______(What / How) fast the young man is walking! Keys: What, How, What a, How II. Alternative questions 选择疑问句

Look at the sentences. —Is this by Strauss or Mozart? —It’s by Strauss.

—Do you like traditional Western music or pop music? —Well, I like both. 选择疑问句提供两种（或两种以上）情况，问对方选择哪一种。

在结构上可用一般疑问句也可用特殊疑问句，两种（或两种以上）情况由or连接起来。选择疑问句在作答时不能用Yes或No，而要作出具体的回答选择。

选择疑问句中的

or 可以连接不同的内容：两个名词、动词、介词短语等等, 但通常是并列结构，即前后一致的结构。

Is it by the father or the son? Would you like coffee, tea or soda?

Did you come here by bus or by car? Should I call or email you?

Did you come here by bus or by car? 小贴士：读这类句子时，语调是前升后降。
