question

1.out of question是状语短语，作“必定地”解，现在很不普通。out of the question是形容词短语，作“必不可能的”解。例如：He is now so tired that to walk another mile is out of the question.注意在该用out of the question的场合不可没有the。也注意out of question和out of the question都不作“当然的”解。

2.There is（或was）no question of (his)...ing作“…是不可能的”或“不必…”解。例如：The weather is so good that there is no question of wearing our raincoats.和Since you have perfect teeth, there is no question of your having to have false teeth made.

但there is no question后面接of和名词可能有两个相反的意思，如There is no question of his deep and lasting love for his wife可能是“他决不会对他的妻子有深切而永久的爱情”，也可能是“他当然对他的妻子有深切而永久的爱情”。 There could be no question of separate lessons for every nationality with explanation in each foreign language: a single series had to serve all students and make itself as clear as possible in Chinese alone里的There could be no question of...只可能有一个意思，便是“…是不可能的”。

There is no question that...作“…是没有疑问的”解。例如：There is no question that a vast number of people have had the same experience.在that前面加上but全句意思不变。

3.The question (of) whether to go to Beijing or to Tianjin，thequestion (of) when to start等表达方式里的of可有可无。

4.The question is whether to go to Beijing or to Tianjin等句子里的the在口语里往往省去，作Question is...。
