一道英语阅读题
原文片段：Two months later Mr.Brody received a box in the mail.
Mr.Brody didn't get the mail until two months passed,did he?
答案是Yes,he did.
我怎么觉得好奇怪?或者告诉我答案是错的也行,那样最好了!
我觉得至少这样说是对的：Mr.Brody didn't get the mail until two months passed.
我不是搞不清汉语英语用法问题，我回答的是No,he didn't.……我就是想说“是啊，他没有收到”直到两个月之后。

Answer 1

这是有关英语的反问句回答法.
Yes,he did.应该理解成“不,他收到了盒子”
与汉语的思维不一样.在英语中不存在no,he did.
所以yes就成了No的意思.
如果你回答no,he did't.就是说“是啊,他没有收到”
