Câu tường thuật (Reported Speech) dễ hiểu nhất
Phần 1: Lý thuyết
I. Khái niệm ( phân biệt câu trực tiếp và câu gián tiếp)
Câu trực tiếp |
Câu gián tiếp |
|
- Câu trực tiếp là câu nói của ai đó được trích dẫn lại nguyên văn và thường được để trong dấu ngoặc kép (“… ”). Ví dụ: + Mary said“ I don’t like ice-cream”. (Cô ấy nói rằng: “Tôi không thích kem”.) Ta thấy trong dấu ngoặc kép là lời nói trực tiếp của Mary và nó được trích dẫn lại một cách nguyên văn. |
- Câu gián tiếp là câu tường thuật lại lời nói của người khác theo ý của người tường thuật và ý nghĩa không thay đổi. Ví dụ: + Mary said thatshe didn’t like ice-cream. (Mary nói cô ấy không thích kem.) Ta thấy câu nói của Mary được tường thuật lại theo cách nói của người tường thuật và ý nghĩa thì vẫn giữ nguyên. |
II. Các thành phần cần biến đổi từ câu trực tiếp sang câu gián tiếp
* Các đại từ: Ta cần thay đổi đại từ sao cho phù hợp với ngữ cảnh trong câu
* Thay đổi thì của câu:
|
Thì của các động từ trong lời nói gián tiếp thay đổi theo một nguyên tắc chung là lùi về quá khứ
* Thay đổi một số động từ khuyết thiếu:
* Thay đổi Đại từ Các đại từ nhân xưng và đại sở hữu khi chuyển từ lời nói trực tiếp sang lời nói gián tiếp thay đổi như bảng sau:
* Các trạng từ chỉ nơi chốn, thời gian:
|
II. Các dạng câu trần thuật cơ bản
1. REPORTED SPEECH: STATEMENTS (Câu trần thuật)
Ta dùng động từ say hoặc tell để tường thuật:
|
* S + said + (that) + S + V * S + told + O + (that) + S + V |
Ex: He said, “I have just bought a computer today.”
He said that he had just bought a computer that day.
( Anh ấy nói: “ Tôi vừa mới mua một cái máy tính vào hôm nay”
-> Anh ấy nói rằng anh ấy vừa mới mua một cái máy tính ngày hôm nay)
Linda said, “There is someone at the door, Bill.”
Linda told Bill that there was someone at the door.
( Linda nói rằng : “ Có ai ở ngoài của kìa, Bill”
-> Linda nói với Bill rằng có ai ở ngoài cửa)
2. REPORTED SPEECH: QUESTIONS (Câu hỏi)
a. Yes-No questions: Khi đổi sang câu gián tiếp, ta cần thêm if hoặc whether trước chủ từ của câu hỏi được tường thuật:
Ex: He said to me, “Are you from Canada?”
He asked me if/whether I was from Canada.
( Anh ấy nói với tôi: “ Bạn đến từ Canada à?
-> Anh ấy hỏi tôi tôi đến từ Canada phải không. )
The man said to her, “Did Bill tell you my address?”
The man asked her if/whether Bill had told her his address.
( Người đàn ông nói với cô ấy: “ Bill đã nói chô biết địa chỉ của tôi à?”
-> Người đàn ông hỏi cô ấy có phài Bill cho cô ấy biết địa chỉ của anh ấy hay không)
The girl said, “Do you live near here, David?”
She asked David if/whether he lived near there.
(Cô gái hỏi: “ Cậu sống gần đây à, David?
-> Cô gái hỏi David có phải anh ấy sống gần đây hay không.)
b. Wh – Questions: Các câu hỏi bắt đầu bằng một từ để hỏi như: who, when, where, when, why, how…
Ex: He said to them, “Where are you going?”
-> He asked them where they were going.
( Anh ấy nói với họ: “ Các bạn đang đi đâu đấy?”
-> Anh ấy hỏi họ rằng họ đang đi đâu đấy.)
The teacher asked, “When do you do your homework, Tom?”
-> The teacher asked Tom when he did his homework.
( Cô giáo hỏi: “ Khi nào con làm bài tập về nhà, Tom?”
-> Cô giáo hỏi Tom khi nào anh ấy làm bài tập về nhà.)
3. REPORTED SPEECH: COMMANDS/ORDERS/REQUESTS (Câu mệnh lệnh/Câu đề nghị)
Ta dùng động từ ask hoặc tell để tường thuật:
EX:
- Dick said to Jim: “Please open the window.” ® Dick told Jim to open the window.
- Mother said, “Tim, go to bed early.” ® Mother told Tim to go to bed early.
- Father said to Liz: “Don’t come home late.” ® Father told Liz not to come home late.
* LƯU Ý: Các trường hợp KHÔNG thay đổi thì trong câu tường thuật:
a. Câu điều kiện loại 2 và 3
Nếu câu nói trực tiếp là câu điều kiện loại 2 và loại 3, ta chỉ thay đổi các đại từ, tình từ…mà không đổi thì trong câu.
Ex: “If I were older, I would retire.”, he said.
He said if he were older, he would retire.
“If I had heard the whole story, I would have acted differently”, he said
He said that if he had heard the whole story, he would have acted differently.
b. Câu trực tiếp diễn tả một chân lí, hay một thói quen ở hiện tại.
Nếu câu nói trực tiếp nói về một sự thật, một chân lí hay một thói quen thường xuyên lặp đi, lập lại ở hiện tại, khi đổi sang câu gián tiếp ta phải giữ nguyên thì của câu trực tiếp.
Ex 1: Trực tiếp: The teacher said, “The earth moves round the Sun”
Gián tiếp: The teacher said that The earth moves round the Sun.
Ex 2: Trực tiếp: My wife always drinks coffee for breakfast.
Gián tiếp: He said that his wife always drinks coffee for breakfast.
c. Động từ tường thuật ở thì hiện tại đơn, hiện tại tiếp diễn, hiện tại hoàn thành, tương lai.
Nếu động từ tường thuật ở thì hiện tại đơn, hiện tại tiếp diễn, hiện tại hoàn thành, tương lai, khi đổi sang câu gián tiếp, ta không thay đổi thì và các cum trạng từ và cụm từ chỉ thời gian và nơi chốn, mà chỉ thay đổi các đại từ hay tính từ…
Ex: He says/ He is saying/ He has said/ He will say, “The bus is coming.” → He says the bus is coming.
d. Không thay đổ thì của động từ trong câu gián tiếp nếu có thời gian xác định trong quá khứ.
Ex. She said, ‘‘I was born in 1980’’
She said that she was born in 1980
e. Các động từ khiếm khuyết: could, would, might, ought to, should thường không thay đổi trong câu tường thuật.
Ex. He said, ‘I might come’
He said that He might come’
- Khi tường thuật mệnh đề ước muốn: “wish’
Ex: He said; “I wish I had a lot of money”
® He wishes (that) he had a lot of money
- Khi tường thuật cấu trúc: “It’s (high/ about) time”
Ex: She said; “It’s about time you went to bed; children”
® She told her children that It’s about time they went to bed

Getting a mortgage

Someone told me to a few months ago that getting a mortgage would be easy. How wrong they were! When I first went into the bank, I asked if them how much I could borrow. They refused that to answer even such a simple question, saying that I had to actually find a house before they could tell me whether they would have lend me the money or not. I thought this was ridiculous and so told it a white lie, saying that I had been already found a house. They finally said they would lend me the money, so that was great. Then the problems started. A few weeks later a friend told me that about a wonderful flat that was for sale. He suggested to our buying it together because it was so large and I agreed. When I went back to the bank and said so I was planning to buy a flat with a friend, the bank manager denied doing that he had ever said the bank would give me a mortgage and claimed that he has had looked at my finances and knew I wasn’t earning enough to borrow money. I begged with him to have another look at my records as I knew he was wrong. Finally, he agreed me to reconsider my case and eventually sent me a letter which stated that the bank would was quite happy to give me a mortgage. By then, though, it was said too late as someone else had bought the flat! |
