原来句子
问句

Do I like music？
He likes sports。
Does he like sports？
Peter went to America。
Did Peter go to America？
He ate three apples last night。
Did he eat three apples last night？

句子中间如已有助动词，改成问句时，只要将助动词移到主动词前面即可。

原来句子
问句
He did not eat。
Did he eat？
He has gone to America。
Has he gone to America？
She can dance。
Can she dance？
I will see you tonight。
Will I see you tonight？
They are going to Washington。
Are they going to Washington？
我们的问句中，当然也可已有否定的意义，比方说，我们可以问：
你不喜欢音乐吗？
他不是你的弟弟吗？
你从未见过他？
英文句子也可以如此，例如：
Don't you like music？
Doesn't he play piano？
Aren't you his brother？
Isn't he a good student？
Didn't he go to school？
Hasn't he lived here？
Won't he leave tomorrow？
注意，这时not通常和动词连在一起了。
有一件事，是我们中国人必须注意的，假如有人问你：
你不喜欢音乐吗？
而你本人的确也不喜欢音乐，你会回答说：
是，我不喜欢音乐。
也就是说，我们中国人的回答是顺着问句的。问句说你不喜欢，我们同意他的说法，所以前面加一个〝是〞。假设我喜欢音乐，我会回答说：
不，我喜欢音乐。
可是，英文正好相反，英文的yes和no，与问句的问法无关，而对应了回答的事实。举例来说，我们的问句也许是：
Don't you like music？
你如不喜欢音乐就回答说：
No； I don't like music。
你如喜欢音乐，就回答说：
Yes； I like music。
再举一例，有人问：
Isn't he Chinese？
他是中国人就回答：
Yes； he is。
他如不是，就回答：
No； he isn't。
反正，英文的yes和no，都和答案的事实对应，而与如何问无关。

7§2 回答不只是〝yes〞和〝no〞的问句
问句的答案当然不一定只是yes或no，以下的问句都是例子：
Where did you buy this book？
Where did you see him？
How do you like America？
Whom do you like？
Which cake do you want？
Whose book is this？
What kind of method is this？
Which country were you born in？
Which do you want； an apple or an orange？
Whom do you like most； your brother or your sister？
Where did you go last night？
When did you meet your father？
When did you read this book？
Whom did you give this book to？
以上的问句中都有助动词，但以下的问句中，助动词是不存在的：
Who gave you this car？
Who wrote this letter？
Who took my pen away？
Who wants to go with me？
Who can sing this song？

被动语气（Passive Voice）
8§1 及物动词和不及物动词
任何一个英文句子必定有一个动词，请先注意以下例句的动词
He was a teacher before。
He went to school yesterday。
He hit a dog。
I saw you yesterday。
He walks to school every day。
He sent this book to me。
They are good students。
He wrote two novels。
They ate all of the apples。
10。 He swims every morning。
在以上的例子中，第3、4、6、8及9句子中的动词都是及物动词（transitive verbs）。这些动词后面都跟着一个名词，而这个名词是动词的受词（object），其它句子的动词，都是不及物动词，因为他们都没有任何受词。
我们将以上句子中，主词、及物动词和受词的关系分析如下：
句子
主词
及物动词
受词
He hit a dog。
He
hit
dog
I saw you yesterday。
I
saw
you
He sent his book to me。
He
sent
his book
He wrote two novels。
He
wrote
two novels
They ate all of the apples。
They
ate
all of the apples
一旦动词是及物动词，我们就可以将这个句子由原来的主动语气（active voice）改成被动语气（passive voice）。但我们也要警告读者，不要轻易用被动语气，因为有时被动语气的句子是不自然的。
8§2 没有助动词的被动语气
在这以前，我们的句子都是主动语气，这种句子的基本形式如下：
主词＋动词＋受词
所谓的被动语气，乃是将原来的受词变成主词。举例来说，主动语气中，我们说〝我看到一些狗〞，在被动语气中，我们说〝一些狗被我看到〞。在英文中，将主动语气改成被动语气，必须做以下的动作：
原有受词变成名词
动词变成verb to be＋过去分词（past participle）
原有主词变成在动词后面，但前面加by。
举例来说，主动语气的句子可以是
I saw a cat。
被动语气就成了
A cat was seen by me。
最重要的是，verb to be的时式必须和原句子的相同，以上的例子中，动词是过去式，所以verb to be也是过去式。除此以外，verb to be也要配合新的主词。请看以下的例子：
I saw two cats。
改成被动语气以后，句子是：
Two cats were seen by me。
以下是主动改被动的例子，最重要的是注意verb to be的形式：
主动语气（active voice）
被动语气（passive voice）
Mr。 Jones hit the dog。
The dog was hit by Mr。 Jones。
My brother saw you yesterday。
You were seen by my brother yesterday。
He sent the book to me。
The book was sent to me by him。
Dickens wrote those two novels。
Those two novels were written by Dickens。
They ate all of the apples。
All of he apples were eaten by them。
Jane wrote that song。
That song was written by Jane。
My mother loves me。
I am loved by my mother。
【练习二十八】
将以下的句子由主动语气改成被动：
He saw that movie last night。
He wrote that letter to me。
He teaches those English classes。
God loves you。
They bought two houses。
I painted this room。
He grows those roses。
He helps his students。
I sold the house。
My uncle bought this car。
【练习二十九】
将以下的句子由被动语气改成主动语气：
The policeman was seen by me。
Those two books were written by me。
These sentences were corrected by my teacher。
He was hit by a car。
His door was locked by me。
His house was built by my father。
His boat was given to me by my father。
This bird is rarely seen by people here。
He is liked by every one。
They were given ten dollars by their friends。
This picture was taken by him。
Too much wine was drunk by the young men。
I was taught by Mr。 Wang。
He was helped by his father。
They were served by that waiter。
His food was prepared by my mother。
His toy was made by my sister。
The book was returned to me by Jim。
That song was written by my brother。
I was invited by him to a party。
8§3 有助动词肯定句子的被动语气
在上一节，我们所有的例子都只是肯定句子，句子中没有助动词，可是有些肯定句子还是有助动词的，以下是一些例子：
主动语气
被动语气
现在进形式
I am writing this letter。
The letter is being written by me。
现在完程序
I have written the letter。
The letter has been written by me。
过去进形式
I was writing the letter when you came。
The letter was being written by me when you came。
过去完程序
I had written the letter before you came。
The letter had been written by me before you came。
未来式
I will write the letter。
The letter will be written by me。
未来完成式
I will have written this letter。
This letter will have been written by me。
未来式
I am going to see you。
You are going to be seen by me。
以下是更多的例子：
主动语气
被动语气
I have seen him。
He has been seen by me。
He is going to help you。
You are going to be helped by him。
He will teach English。
English will be taught by him。
He has helped me all my life。
I have been helped by him all my life。
He had called me before you came。
I had been called by him before you came。
He was calling his mother when we went there。
His mother was being called by him when we went there。
助动词不一定和时式有关，can、should、has to等等都是助动词，这些助动词在改成被动语气的时后，都应维持原状，只需加入verb to be和过去分词即可。以下是一些例子：
主动语气
被动语气
I can play the piano。
The piano can be played by me。
I may use this room。
This room may be used by me。
He must give the book to me。
The book must be given to me by him。
You should help him。
He should be helped by you。
You
