Согласование времен самостоятельная работа

Комплексный материал по согласованию времен с подробным разбором большинства трудностей для учащихся. Возможно использовать как для самостоятельной работы дома, так и для работы в классе.

Итак, косвенная речь – это способ передачи чужих слов, то есть мы пересказываем то, что уже сказал кто-то другой. Передача информации посредством косвенной речи на иностранном языке один из основных показателей вашей исключительной эрудиции и образованности.

Чтобы правильно передать чью-то речь, необходимо использовать глагол сообщения с правильным значением. Самые распространенные глаголы сообщения – say и tell. У них одинаковое значение – говорить; однако используем мы их по-разному. После подлежащего в первой части мы можем использовать глагол say, если мы не знаем, к кому обращена речь или глагол tell, когда мы знаем, к кому обращена речь.

Существует действительно огромное количество вариантов, как донести высказывание говорящего, не прибегая к прямой речи и банальным say, tell, ask. Можно не только разнообразить свою речь вводными глаголами, но и придать ей тонкий эмоциональный окрас: добавить нотки гнева, радости, уверенности или же разочарования. Такие глаголы сообщения помогают точнее выразить, что человек чувствует, его точку зрения или что думает говорящий o чьих-то словах.

Однако,  с ними нужно быть внимательными, так как при переходе из прямой речи в косвенную, эти глаголы  влияют на структуру придаточного предложения.

Выделяют пять основных моделей управления посредством глаголов сообщений (Patterns) требующих запоминания (с инфинитивом, герундием, дополнением или сказуемным придаточным, а также косвенные вопросы). После некоторых глаголов можно использовать разные структуры.

1. Pattern 1 — Verb + that-clause (Глагол сообщение + (союз that) придаточное предложение).        Pattern 1а – Verb + object + [that] (Глагол сообщение + дополнение + (союз that) придаточное предложение).
2. Pattern 2 — Verb + Infinitive (Глагол сообщение + инфинитив глагола из предложения прямой речи).                                                                                                                                                            Pattern 2а — Verb + sb + [not] + to-inf (Глагол сообщение + дополнение + инфинитив глагола из предложения прямой речи).
3. Pattern 3 — Verb + Gerund (Глагол сообщение + герундий).                                                                    Pattern 3а — Verb + preposition + [not] + gerund (Глагол сообщение с предлогом + герундий).                   Pattern 3b — Verb + object + preposition + [not] + gerund (Глагол сообщение + дополнение + предлог + герундий).
4. Pattern 4 — Verb + object (Глагол сообщение + дополнение)
5. Pattern 5 — Reported Questions (Косвенные вопросы)

ОБЪЯСНЕНИЕ:

1. Pattern 1 — Verb + that-clause (Глагол сообщение + (союз that) придаточное предложение). Союз that может опускаться. В данной модели мы используем правило согласования времен!

They said (that) they were happy.  She said (that) it was raining.                                                                              

Наиболее используемые вводные глаголы с этой моделью: 

agree (соглашаться), decide (решать что делать), explain (объяснять), promise (обещать), complain (жаловаться), admit (признаваться), recommend (советовать), insist (настаивать), regret (сожалеть), suggest (предлагать), comment (комментировать), point out (обращать внимание) и т.д.

Примеры:

1. She said, “I will marry you.”  She agreed that she would marry him.
2. John said, “I will see him on Sunday.” John decided that he would meet him on Sunday.

И разновидность первой модели со словами к кому обращаются:

1. Pattern 1а – Verb + object + [that] (Глагол сообщение + дополнение + (союз that) придаточное предложение). В данной модели мы тоже используем правило согласования времен!

He told everybody (that) he had to leave. She told me (that) she loved John.

Наиболее используемые вводные глаголы с этой моделью:                                                                                 tell smb. (говорить кому-то), inform sb. (сообщать кому-то), warn smb. (предупреждать кого-то), advise smb. (советовать кому-то), remind smb. (напоминать кому-то) и т.д.

1. Pattern 2 — Verb + Infinitive (Глагол сообщение + инфинитив глагола из предложения прямой речи).  Следующая структура отличается! Здесь вам не понадобится правило согласования времен, так как после глагола сообщения нужно использовать ИНФИНИТИВ.

 She said, “I will marry you.” She agreed to marry him.                                                                                             John said, “I will see him on Sunday.” John decided to see him on Sunday.                                                                  ‘Can I get you a cup of tea?’ – He offered to get me a cup of tea.

Используют такие глаголы, как offer и invite.

Косвенная речь в английском языке: правила, примеры и исключения в различных временных формах (общая информация)

Общаясь с людьми, мы постоянно получаем от них какую-то информацию, которую в последующем передаем кому-то еще. Для ее передачи может использоваться несколько вариантов. Конечно же, вы можете просто объяснить мысль своими словами так, как поняли ее именно вы. Или же вы можете дать понять, что идея принадлежит не вам. В таких случаях используют прямую или косвенную речь. И если прямая достаточно проста в использовании, косвенная речь в английском языке имеет ряд особенностей, которые стоит учитывать.

Для начала давайте разберемся, чем отличаются прямая и косвенная речь в английском языке. Direct speech или прямая речь выражает фразу человека дословно. Это в своем роде цитата, которую никак изменить нельзя. Как и в русском, прямая речь обрамляется кавычками. Вот только вместо двоеточия перед словами автора в начале или запятой с тире на конце обычно используется одна простая запятая:

Схемы предложений прямой речи
Слова автора,	“прямая речь.”
“Прямая речь”,	слова автора.

Обратите внимание, что точка на конце предложения в первом случае ставится перед кавычкой, а не после как в русском языке. Кроме того, кавычки в английском всегда ставятся сверху.

Примеры:

• She asked, “Do you feel comfortable here?” — Она спросила: «Тебе здесь комфортно?»
• “I will not accept his apology”, she said. — «Я не приму его извинения», — сказала она.

Заметьте, что вопросительные и восклицательные знаки в косвенной речи не употребляются.

Все предложения можно перевести из прямой речи в косвенную. Indirect speech или косвенная речь (досл. «непрямая речь» или Reported speech) в свою очередь выражает содержание фразы, не сохраняя дословности и особенностей стилистики. Все предложения, имеющие косвенную речь, являются сложноподчиненными, где в главном предложении используются слова автора, а в придаточном – сама косвенная речь. Как правило, главное предложение ставится первым, а после него идет придаточное, которое в таких речевых конструкциях часто вводится союзом или местоимением.

Схема предложений косвенной речи
Слова автора	вводное слово	косвенная речь.

Стоит отметить, что запятая после слов автора в английском не употребляется.

• She asks when you’ll be free. — Она спрашивает, когда вы будете свободны.
• He said (that) they liked everything very much. — Он сказал, (что) им все очень понравилось.

Замена прямой речи косвенной

При замене прямой речи косвенной личные и притяжательные местоимения, а также личные формы глаголов передаются от лица автора, рассказчика, а не от лица того, чья речь передаётся.

 В косвенной речи английского языка так же меняются и ссылка на того, кто говорит (то есть меняется местоимение), а так же слова, указывающие на место и время. Чтобы разобраться в этом попроще, но и более подробней, давайте обратим отдельное внимание на каждый из этих аспектов.   

1. Итак, местоимения:

в прямой речи	в косвенной речи
I	he / she
me	him / her
my	his / her
mine	his / hers
you	I / we
your	my / our
yours	mine / ours
we	they
us	them
our	their
ours	theirs

      2. Стоит отметить, что если глагол в главном предложении стоит в настоящем или будущем времени, глаголы в косвенной речи могут стоять в любом времени:

Direct speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect speech (Косвенная речь)
He says, «You remind me of my mother.» (Он говорит: «Ты напоминаешь мне мою маму».)	He says that I remind him of his mother. (Он говорит, что я напоминаю ему его маму.)
I will just say, “You made a huge mistake.” (Я просто скажу: «Ты совершил огромную ошибку».)	I will just say that he made a huge mistake. (Я просто скажу, что он совершил огромную ошибку.)

То есть если вы хотите составить косвенное предложение, в котором главная часть используется в настоящем или будущем, просто переведите придаточное с прямого предложения в косвенное, изменив лишь местоимения по смыслу.

1. Косвенная речь в английском языке: согласование времен

Дело в том, что если главное предложение будет в прошедшем времени, придаточное тоже должно будет поменять свое время на соответствующее. Здесь работает согласование времен. Наверное, это вам совсем ничего не объяснило, а потому давайте обратимся к примерам для наглядности.

Допустим, у вас есть предложение с прямой речью:

He said, “I have never been to South Korea.”

Он сказал: «Я никогда не был в Южной Корее».

Его главная часть используется во времени Past Simple. Косвенная же образуется в Present Perfect. Пока обе эти части используются в предложении с прямой речью, все в порядке, потому как настоящее время используется в кавычках и слово в слово передает фразу человека. Однако если убрать кавычки и превратить прямую речь в косвенную, сохранить Present Perfect не получится, по крайней мере, это будет считаться ошибкой.

«Почему?» — спросите вы. Да потому, что в английском языке есть такое правило: если глагол в главном предложении употребляется в прошедшем времени, придаточные предложения образуются только формами прошедшего или будущего в прошедшем. Соответственно, переделав предложение выше в косвенное, вы получите:

He said that he had never been to South Korea.

Он сказал, что (он) никогда не был в Южной Корее.

• Во-первых, поменялось местоимение для согласования времен.
• Во-вторых, глагол из Present Perfect перешел в Past Perfect.

На первых порах вы, вероятно, будете испытывать трудности в преобразовании предложений. Однако в последующем этот процесс не будет занимать у вас время. Чтобы облегчить вам понимание этой темы, давайте рассмотрим все возможные варианты согласования времен. Таблица для наглядности:

Direct speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect speech (Косвенная речь)
Present Simple меняется на Past Simple
He answered, “I want to go to the theatre.” (Он ответил: «Я хочу пойти в театр».)	He answered that he wanted to go to the theatre. (Он ответил, что хочет пойти в театр.)
Present Continuous меняется на Past Continuous
Jim said, “I’m doing English exercises now.” (Джим сказал: «Сейчас я делаю упражнения по английскому языку».)	Jim said that he was doing English exercises then. (Джим сказал, что он делает упражнения по английскому языку.)
Present Perfect меняется на Past Perfect
My son said, «I have read the book twice.» (Мой сын сказал: «Я дважды читал эту книгу».)	My son said that he had read the book twice. (Мой сын сказал, что он дважды читал эту книгу.)
Present Perfect Continuous меняется на Past Perfect Continuous
Bruce confirmed, «She has been living here for 2 years.» (Брюс подтвердил: «Она живет здесь уже 2 года».)	Bruce confirmed that she had been living there for 2 years. (Брюс подтвердил, что она живет там 2 года.)
Past Simple меняется на Past Perfect
He said, «I worked yesterday.» (Он сказал: «Я работал вчера».)	He said that he had worked the day before. (Он сказал, что за день до этого он работал.)
Past Continuous меняется на Past Perfect Continuous
She said, «He was sleeping.» (Она сказала: «Он спал».)	She said that he had been sleeping. (Она сказала, что он спал.)
Past Perfect неменяется
Mom said, «Tom was tired because he had studied hard.» (Мама сказала: «Том устал, потому что он много занимался».)	Mom said that Tom was tired because he had studied hard. (Мама сказала, что Том устал, потому что он много занимался.)
Past Perfect Continuous неменяется
She said, «We had not been travelling till he graduated from the university.» (Она сказала: «Мы не путешествовали, пока он не окончил университет».)	She said that they had not been travelling till he graduated from the university. (Она сказала, что они не путешествовали, пока он не окончил университет.)
Во всех будущих временах will меняется на would, образуя будущее в прошедшем
He said, «I will be with you whatever what.» (Он сказал: «Я буду с тобой, что бы ни случилось».)	He said that he would be with me whatever what. (Он сказал, что будет со мной, что бы ни случилось.)
Модальные глаголы, имеющие прошедшее время тоже изменяются:
Can на Could; May на Might; Will на Would;	Have to на Had to; Shall на Would (о будущем); Shall на Should (совет).
She said, «He can do it.» (Она сказала: «Он может это сделать».)	She said that he could do it. (Она сказала, что он может это сделать.)
Should, must, might, ought to, need, had to не меняются
The teacher said, «You must consider the translation rules doing the task.» (Учитель сказал: «Вы должны учитывать правила перевода, выполняя задание».)	The teacher said that we must consider the translation rules doing the task. (Учитель сказал, что мы должны учитывать правила перевода, выполняя задание.)

То есть вам нужно использовать ту же группу, но в другом времени. Обычно это «другое» время расположено на временной шкале до того времени, которое использовалось в прямой речи. Исключениями являются времена Past Perfect и Past Perfect Continuous, так как до них никаких времен нет. Времена Past Simple и Past Continuous могут тоже не изменяться в разговорной речи, а также когда в предложении используется Past Perfect или Past Perfect Continuous, как в примерах выше.

            4. Теперь то, что касается времени и места, если главное предложение будет в прошедшем времени:

в прямой речи	в косвенной речи
today	that day
tonight	that night
tomorrow	the next day / the following day
next (week, month, year, etc.)	the next day / the following (week, month, year, etc.)
ago	before
yesterday	the day before / the previous day
last (week, month, year, etc.)	the previous (week, month, year, etc.)
now	then
here	there
this (о месте)	that (о месте)

Пример:

John said, «I arrived there an hour ago». — John said he had arrived there an hour before.

Типы предложений в косвенной речи английского языка

Конструкция предложений выше не является единственной. Рассмотрим все варианты косвенных предложений:

• Для образования повествовательного предложения в косвенной речи достаточно, как в примерах выше, использование союза that (что), который может при желании опускаться:

Direct Speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect Speech (Косвенная речь)
George said, “I knew the truth.” (Джордж сказал, что он знает правду.)	George said (that) he knew the truth. Джордж сказал, что он знает правду.

• Если предложения в прямой речи являются повелительными, то в косвенную речь в английском эти повелительные предложения вводятся инфинитивом:

Direct Speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect Speech (Косвенная речь)
Mom said, “Go home!” (Мама сказала: «Иди домой!»)	Mom said to go home. (Мама сказала идти домой.)

Если повелительное наклонение отрицательное, то перед инфинитивом ставится отрицательная частица not:

She said to me, “Don’t touch my clothes.” (Она сказала мне: «Не трогай мои вещи».)	She asked me not to touch her clothes. (Она попросила меня, не трогать ее вещи.)
The officer said, “Don’t move!” (Офицер сказал: «Не двигайся!»)	The officer ordered not to move. (Офицер приказал не двигаться.)

Заметьте, что в главном предложении возможно использование побудительных слов, которые выражают приказ или просьбу.

• Особые нюансы имеют и вопросы в косвенной речи в английском языке. Если прямая речь содержит общие вопросы, то такие предложения в косвенную речь будут вводиться союзами whether / if (ли):

Direct Speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect Speech (Косвенная речь)
He asks, “Do you like these colours?” (Он спрашивает: «Тебе нравятся эти цвета?»)	He asks whether I like these colours. (Он спрашивает, нравятся ли мне эти цвета.)

Если вы, например, пересказываете диалог, то помимо вопроса вам нужно будет рассказать и об ответе, который тоже может употребляться в косвенной речи:

She answered, “Yes, I do.” (Она ответила: «Да».)

She answered that she did. (Она ответила утвердительно.)

Как видите, «да» и «нет» в таких случаях опускаются.

• Если же прямая речь в английском языке содержит специальный вопрос, то он вводится в косвенное предложение союзом, который идентичен вопросительному слову, с которого начинается предложение. Несмотря на то, что вопросительные предложения имеют обратный порядок слов, в косвенной речи сохраняется прямой порядок:

Direct Speech (Прямая речь)	Indirect Speech (Косвенная речь)
She asks, “Where will you go?” (Она спрашивает: «Куда вы пойдете?»)	She asks where we will go. (Она спрашивает, куда мы пойдем.)

Ввод вопросов в косвенную речь применяется достаточно часто, поэтому обязательно изучите этот момент.

Обход косвенных предложений

Из самых лучших побуждений, расскажем вам небольшой секрет, который имеется в арсенале переводчиков. Если, составляя предложения в косвенной речи на английском языке, у вас возникает паника, или же вы просто не хотите их использовать, иногда употребление этих предложений можно избежать. Например:

He said, “Hello everyone!” (Он сказал: «Привет всем!»)	He greeted everyone. (Он поздоровался со всеми.)
She said, “Yes.” (Она сказала: «Да».)	She agrees. / She confirms. (Она согласилась. / Она подтвердила.)
She says, “No.” (Она говорит: «Нет».)	She doesn’t agree (disagree). / She denies. (Она не соглашается. Она отрицает.)
He said, “I don’t want to answer”. (Он сказал: «Я не хочу отвечать».)	He refused to answer. (Он отказался отвечать.)

Переделывать все косвенные предложения в подобные, конечно, не получится, но если такой переход возможен, смело его используйте.
