Question 問

What is the proper response to the question, "Are these ___?" Should we say, "They are ____" or is it better to say, "These are _____"? For example, Question: Are these mice? Answer: Yes, these are mice. OR Yes, they are mice.

對“這些是___嗎?”我們應該說，“他們是____”還是說，“這些是_____”更好?例如，問題:這些是老鼠嗎?答:是的，這些是老鼠。或者是的，它們是老鼠。

Answer 答

It's somewhat more common to answer "They are mice" but "These are mice" is also correct.

更常見的回答是“They are mice”，但“These are mice”也是正确的。

"These are mice" might be a better answer if something else is in the group of things the asker is referring to. For example, if someone asks "Are these mice?" and they point to a box containing mice and rats, you might answer, "Yes, these (the mice) are mice, but these (the rats) are rats" to differentiate. Otherwise, it's very common to replace a word like this, that, those, or these with a pronoun like it or they, or he or she or they if you are talking about a person/people.

“這些是老鼠”可能是一個更好的答案，如果在一組事物中有其他東西的提問者指的東西。例如，如果有人問“這些是老鼠嗎?”他們指着一個裝着老鼠和大鼠的盒子，你可能會回答，“是的，這些(老鼠)是老鼠，但這些(大鼠)是大鼠”來區分。否則，當你談論人的時候，用it或they、he或she或they代替像this、that、those或these這樣的詞是很常見的。
