Câu tường thuật lớp 11 - Tổng quan lý thuyết và bài tập kèm đáp án

Tổng quan lý thuyết về câu tường thuật lớp 11

Theo sách “Advanced Grammar in Use” (Martin Hewings), chúng ta thường sử dụng câu tường thuật để thuật lại những lời người khác nói khi thông tin muốn truyền tải quan trọng hơn là câu từ chính xác mà người nói đã sử dụng.

Học sinh lớp 11 sẽ phải làm quen và nắm rõ được những dạng câu tường thuật dưới đây:

Câu tường thuật ở dạng câu khẳng định

Công thức: S1 + reporting verb (+ that) + S2 + V.

Lưu ý:

• Reporting verb – động từ tường thuật – là những động từ như say, ask, tell, propose, suppose, inform, mention, …

• Khi chuyển từ câu được trích dẫn trực tiếp sang câu tường thuật, mệnh đề được tường thuật, tức vế sau reporting verb, thường sẽ được lùi thì.

Ví dụ:

• She said: "I am going to the store." (Cô ấy nói: “Tôi đang đến cửa hàng.”)

→ She said that she was going to the store. (Cô ấy nói rằng cô ấy đang đến cửa hàng.)

Câu tường thuật ở dạng câu hỏi

Công thức:

Câu hỏi Wh-: S1 + asked + Wh- word + S2 + V.

Câu hỏi Yes/No: S1 + asked + if/whether + S2 + V.

Ví dụ:

• Joan asked: "What time did you arrive, Ellen?" (Joan hỏi: “Bạn đến đây lúc mấy giờ vậy, Ellen?”)

→ Joan asked Ellen what time she had arrived. (Joan hỏi Ellen cô ấy đã đến lúc mấy giờ.)

• He asked: "Did you enjoy the movie?" (Anh ấy hỏi: “Bạn có thích bộ phim vừa xem không?”)

→He wanted to know if I had enjoyed the movie. (Anh ấy muốn biết tôi có thích bộ phim vừa xem hay không.)

Câu tường thuật ở dạng câu điều kiện

Công thức:

Type 0: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + V(present), S3 + V(present).

Type 1:

Nếu được tường thuật cùng lúc hoặc câu được tường thuật vẫn đúng: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + V(present), S3 + will V(bare).

Nếu câu được tường thuật đã không còn đúng nữa: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + V(past), S3 + would + V(bare).

Type 2:

Nếu câu được tường thuật vẫn đúng: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + V(past), S3 + would + V(bare).

Nếu câu được tường thuật đã không còn đúng nữa: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + had V(pp), S3 + would have + V(pp).

Type 3: S1 + reporting verb + if + S2 + had V(pp), S3 + would have + V(pp).

Ví dụ:

She said: "If I study hard, I will pass the exam." (Nếu cô ấy học hành chăm chỉ, cô ấy sẽ vượt qua kỳ thi.)

→ She mentioned that if she studied hard, she would pass the exam. (Cô ấy đề cập rằng nếu cô ấy học hành chăm chỉ, cô ấy sẽ vượt qua kỳ thi.)

He said: "If they had enough money, they would travel around the world." (Nếu họ có đủ tiền, họ sẽ du lịch quanh thế giới.)

→ He said that if they had enough money, they would travel around the world. (Anh ấy nói rằng nếu họ có đủ tiền, họ sẽ du lịch quanh thế giới.)

Nora: "If you had called me, I would have come to pick you up." (Nếu bạn đã gọi cho tôi, tôi sẽ đến đón bạn.)

→ Nora explained that if I had called her, she would have come to pick me up. (Nora giải thích rằng nếu tôi đã gọi cho cô ấy thì cô ấy đã đến đón tôi rồi.)

Câu tường thuật ở dạng câu mệnh lệnh, gợi ý

Công thức:

Với những reporting verb là ask, advise, invite, order, tell, warn: S + reporting verb + O + to V.

Với những reporting verb là agree, offer, promise, refuse, threaten: S + reporting verb + to V.

Với những reporting verb là admit, apologise for, insist on, suggest: S + reporting verb + V-ing.

Ví dụ:

• "Complete the project by the end of the week.", the manager advised the team. (“Hãy hoàn thành dự án trước cuối tuần nhé.”, người quản lý đã khuyên đội như vậy.)

→ The manager advised the team to complete the project by the end of the week. (Người quản lý khuyên đội nên hoàn thành dự án trước cuối tuần.)

• Nam: “Okay, I will help you with the fundraising event.” (Nam: “Được rồi, tôi sẽ giúp các bạn tổ chức sự kiện gây quỹ.”)

→ Nam agreed to help us with the fundraising event. (Nam đã đồng ý giúp chúng tôi tổ chức sự kiện gây quỹ.)

• "I'm sorry for being late to the meeting.", she apologised. (“Tôi xin lỗi vì đã đến họp muộn.”, cô ấy đã xin lỗi như thế.)
