How在英語中通常用作副詞,是特殊疑問句中本領(lǐng)最大的疑問詞.本文將其疑問功能展示如下,希望能幫助同學(xué)們更好地掌握它的用法.
一、 單獨(dú)用作疑問詞.
1． 問身體健康等情況.
How are your parents?你父母身體好嗎?
How are things in your father’s factory?你爸爸廠里的情況怎么樣?
2． 問天氣狀況.
How is the weather today?今天天氣怎么樣?
3．詢問方式.

4．詢問程度.

二、 與其它形容詞或副詞搭配使用
1．How old問年齡、年代.
How old is your friend?你朋友多大了?
How old is the bridge?這座橋有多少年代了?
2．How many問可數(shù)名詞數(shù)量.常將可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)緊隨其后.如：
How many pictures are there on the wall?墻上有多少幅畫?
How many glasses of milk would you like?你們想要幾杯牛奶?
3．How much詢問不可數(shù)名詞的數(shù)量、物品的價(jià)格.

4．How long提問物體的長(zhǎng)度、時(shí)間的長(zhǎng)短.
How long is the Changjia River?長(zhǎng)江有多長(zhǎng)?
How long does it take you to do your homework every day?

6．How often對(duì)表示頻率的副詞或短語提問.
How often does Mrs.Green go shopping?格林夫人多久去購一次物?
7．How about用來征求對(duì)方意見.
Your father is a worker,how about your mother?你父親是工人,你母親呢?
How about playing games after school this afternoon?下午放學(xué)后做游戲怎么樣?
8．How far 問兩地間的距離How tall問人（樹）的高度；how heavy問重量；how wide問寬度；how high可以詢問建筑物、山峰高度.
How far is it from the earth to the moon?從地球到月球有多遠(yuǎn)?
How tall is Yao Ming?姚明身高多少?
How heavy is that big box?那只大箱子有多重?

三、How可以用來對(duì)形容詞、副詞強(qiáng)調(diào)構(gòu)成感嘆句.
How funny the little boy looks!這個(gè)小男孩多有趣啊!
How beautiful the flowers in the parks are!公園里的那些花多美啊!
注意以how開頭的感嘆句與以how開頭的特殊疑問句的語序和句末符號(hào)是不同的.感嘆句主謂不倒裝,句末是感嘆號(hào),而特殊疑問句主謂要倒裝,且句末為問號(hào).試比較：
How far is the factory from here?車站離這兒有多遠(yuǎn)?（疑問）
How far the factory is from here!車站離這兒多遠(yuǎn)啊!（感嘆）
四、有些句子用how和what可以表達(dá)相同的意思,有異曲同工的效果.大家先
