About this activity

Ever felt that a sentence says more than it actually says?

Welcome to the world of presupposition — the hidden assumptions we make when we speak.
In this quiz, you’ll explore how everyday sentences quietly carry background information that speakers take for granted.

Don’t worry — no trick questions here! Just five short questions to help you spot what is assumed, not stated.

Let’s see how much you already know… even before you realize it 😉

是不是曾觉得某个句子表达的意思比字面意思更深？

欢迎来到“预设”的世界——那些我们在说话时做的隐性假设。

在这个小测验中，你将探索日常句子是如何悄然承载着说话者习以为常的背景信息的。

别担心——没有陷阱题！也没有生命值限制！只有五个简短的问题，帮助你发现哪些是隐含的，哪些是未明确表达的。

让我们看看你对预设了解多少……甚至在你意识到之前就已经知道了😉

Feedback

"stop doing [X]" presupposes that [X] was done in the past. “stop doing [X]” 预设 过去曾经做过 [X]这个行为。

"realise that…" is a fact verb, presupposing that what follows is true. “realise that …” 是 事实动词（factive verb），预设后面的内容是真的。

The word "even" implies that others also understood it, and suggests that Lisa is unlikely to be among those who did. “even” 预设 有其他人也理解了，并暗示 Lisa 是不太可能理解的那一类。

"regret" is a typical factive verb that triggers a presupposition. “regret” 是典型的 factive verb，触发预设。

The fact that a presupposition still holds true after negation is a key characteristic that distinguishes presupposition from entailment. 预设在否定后仍然成立，这是区分 presupposition vs entailment 的关键特征。
