Bài tập về câu hỏi đuôi Lớp 8 (Có đáp án) Ôn tập ngữ pháp tiếng Anh

I. Câu hỏi đuôi là gì?

Câu hỏi đuôi - tag question là một câu hỏi ngắn, được đính kèm sau câu trần thuật để chúng ta có thể hỏi lại thông tin. Đây là dạng câu hỏi dạng Yes/No Question.

Ex: They are student, aren’t they.

Câu trả lời: Yes, they are.

Hoặc He isn't a doctor, is he?

No, he is.

Và bạn thường gặp cách trả lời có hoặc không để nhấn mạnh lại thông tin hay bác bỏ nó.

II. Cấu trúc câu hỏi đuôi

1. Nguyên tắc hình thành

1.1. Nguyên tắc chung

- Sử dụng trợ động từ giống như ở mệnh đề chính để làm phần đuôi câu hỏi.

- Nếu không có trợ động từ thì dùng do, does, did để thay thế.

- Nếu mệnh đề chính ở thể khẳng định thì phần đuôi ở thể phủ định và ngược lại.

- Thời của động từ ở đuôi phải theo thời của động từ ở mệnh đề chính.

- Chủ ngữ của mệnh đề chính và của phần đôi là giống nhau.

- Đại từ ở phần đuôi luôn phải để ở dạng chủ ngữ .

- Phần đuôi nếu ở dạng phủ định thì thường được rút gọn (n’t). Nếu không rút gọn thì phải theo thứ tự: trợ động từ + S + not?

Ví dụ:

She is beautiful, isn’t she? (Cô ấy không cao lắm nhỉ?)

2. Cấu trúc

2.1. Hiện tại đơn

Động từ “to be”:

- S + am/is/are + O, isn’t/ aren’t + S?

Ví dụ 1: I am late, aren’t I? (Tôi đến trễ phải không?)

Ví dụ 2: He is not nice, isn’t he ? ( Anh ấy không tốt phải không?)

Động từ thường:

- S + V + O, don’t/doesn’t + S?

Ex: Tom likes football, doesn’t he (Tom thích bóng đá, phải không?)

Ex: Tom doesn’t like football, does he? ( Tom không thích bóng đá, phải không?)

2.2. Thì hiện tại tiếp diễn

- S + am/is/are + V_ing, isn’t/ aren’t + S?

- S + am/is/are + not + V_ing, am/is/are + S?

Ex: It is raining, isn’t it? (Trời đang mưa phải không?)

Ex: It isn’t raining, is it?

2.3. Thì hiện tại hoàn thành

- S + have/has + V3/ed, haven’t/ hasn’t + S?

- S + have/has + not + V3/ed, have/has + S?

Ex:Tom has gone out, hasn’t he? (Tom vừa chạy ra ngoài phải không?)

Ex:Tom hasn’t gone out, has he?

2.4. Thì quá khứ đơn

Động từ “to be”

- S + was/were + O, wasn’t/weren’t + S?

- S + was/were + not + O, was/were + S?

Ex:They were late, weren’t they? (Họ đến trễ phải không?)

Ex: They weren’t late, were they?

Động từ thường

- S + V2/ed + O, didn’t + S?

- S + didn’t + V + O, did + S?

Ex: She had to leave early, didn’t she? (Cô ấy phải rời sớm phải không?)

Ex: She didn’t have to leave early, did she?

2.5. Thì tương lai đơn

- S + will + V_inf, won’t + S? S + will + not + V_inf, will + S?

Ex: You’ll be back soon, won’t you? (Có phải bạn sẽ quay lại sớm?)

Ex: You won’t be back soon, will you?

2.6. Động từ khiếm khuyết (modal verbs)

- S + modal verbs + V_inf, modal verbs + not + S?

- S + modal verbs + not + V_inf, modal verbs + S?

Ex: The children can swim, can’t they? (Bọn trẻ có bơi được không?)

Ex: The children can’t swim, can they?

Chú ý: Trong câu hỏi đuôi chúng ta luôn luôn dùng các đại từ chủ ngữ (I, he, it, they,..) để đặt câu hỏi. Nếu là câu hỏi đuôi phủ định chúng ta dùng hình thức tỉnh lượt giữa “not” với “to be” hoặc với trợ động từ (isn’t, don’t, doesn’t, haven’t, didn’t, can’t, won’t,…)

Ví dụ: Tom was at home, wasn’t he? Không nói: Wasn’t Tom? hay was not Tom?
