翻开2001年镇江市中考试题单项选择题部分,会看到这样一道题目:

　　When do you think he

　　to school every day ?

　　A. does; go B./;goes

　　C. did; go D. has; gone

　　给出的答案是A。当时我就对它产生了怀疑。翻阅资料以后更加证实了自己的推测是正确的,应该选择B。本句的意思相当于Do you think when _____ he ______ to school every day?这样的一个宾语从句。因为宾语从句必须是陈述语序,并且该从句又用一般现在时,故选择B。

　　为了在不同场合正确地使用Do you think……及相关的用法,联系这几年的中。高考情况,请大家特别注意以下几个方面:

　　1. do you think / believe / consider /

　　suppose / expect等后面接特殊疑问词引导宾语从句时,特殊疑问词移到主句之首。如:

　　Who do you think will win the game?

　　What do you suppose made her such a famous woman?

　　Which of these machines do you think is the first useful?

　　2.当think, believe, expect, suppose, imagine等表示看法。意见的动词后接含not的宾语从句时,习惯上把not移到主句之中,构成否定转移。如:

　　I don't think that she cares about maths.

　　I don't think it's necessary to buy so big a house.

　　3.当陈述部分的主句是I think...时,附加问句要与that从句中的主谓对应一致。如:

　　I think Jim is working hard at a novel, isn't he?

　　但是当主句的主语不是第一人称时,附加问句仍和主句对应。如:

　　Mr. Gao thinks Wei Minzhi can take his place, doesn't he?

　　4.对Do you think / suppose /expect等一般疑问句的简略回答是:

　　I think so. I don't think so. I think not.具有这样用法的词还有expect, suppose, imagine, guess, hope,

　　be afraid等。

　　请看下面几道英语试题:
