Andy老师在教PTE口语Read aloud的时候，在讲到升调和降调的时候很多同学都会问一个问题，遇到问号我是应该升调还是降调呢？比如这道经典的Read aloud题目
A young man from a small provincial town-a man without independent wealth, without powerful family connections and without a university education - moved to London in the late 1580's and, in a remarkably short time, became the greatest playwright not of his age alone but of all time. How did Shakespeare become Shakespeare?
这里的
How did shakespeare become shakespeare?
到底应该是升调还是降调呢？
今天Andy老师就给大家讲解一下当遇到问号的时候什么情况下需要升调，什么情况下需要降调？
我们来看一下这几句话，大家可以先来判断一下结尾部分应该是升调还是降调？
Did you go to the party?
Did you go to the show?
Did you pick up the groceries？
Can I borrow your book?
结尾应该升调还是降调呢？
答案是：全部升调来结尾
我们来看看为什么是升调呢？
Did you go to the party?我们一般的回答是Yes，we did或者 No，we didn't.同样Did you go to the show? 我们的答案也是Yes or No。
那遇到此类句子结尾是问号的时候，我们可以得出一个结论：当遇到Did, Does ,is ,can类型的问句的时候，我们结尾部分应该是升调。换一种方法来说，遇到Yes/No类型的问题的时候，我们在结尾部分选择升调。
那遇到这些句子我们应该是升调还是降调呢？
what did you bring to the party?
where is the key?
where is your book?
when did you see Amanda?
这些句子的答案都不是 Yes/No类型的题目，所以我们 结尾部分应该选择降调为主！
总结来说，
当我们遇到Yes/no类型的句子，那么我们选择结尾部分升调。
除了Yes/no类型的句子，我们结尾部分选择降调。
回到开始的那道Read Aloud真题，
A young man from a small provincial town-a man without independent wealth, without powerful family connections and without a university education - moved to London in the late 1580's and, in a remarkably short time, became the greatest playwright not of his age alone but of all time. How did Shakespeare become Shakespeare?
How did shakespeare become shakespeare? 因为这个不是Yes/No类型的句子，你是不是就能判断出要用降调了呢？
