语法 Grammar in use

间接引语：祈使句的转述

（1）在第15课与第39课的语法中，我们分别学习了陈述句和疑问句变为间接引语的情况，它们基本上都是引述词(say, tell 等)+（间接宾语）+从句：

He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries.

他告诉我，公司支付不起这么庞大的工资开支。（间接陈述句）

He asked if Mr. Gilbert's operation had been successful.

他问吉尔伯特先生的手术是否成功。（间接疑问句）

（2）祈使句的情况有所不同。表示命令、请求、建议的祈使句通常可用适当的动词后跟不定式来转述。常用的这类动词有

advise, ask, tell, order, command, warn, invite等，这些动词后往往有间接宾语：

转述这类祈使句的否定形式时，必须将not放在带to的不定式之前：

I advise you not to buy her anything.

我建议你别给她买任何东西。

（3）动词suggest和insist用于转述建议、要求时，其结构为suggest/insist+that从句（用should）：
