Today when reviewing the wh- noun clause with Class 311, I had them interview an E.T., played by Elcent, a student in the class. To find out as many facts about the alien as possible, the "earthlings" asked questions starting with "Would you please/Could you tell us," "I'd like to know," and "(Please) tell us." For example, "Would you please tell us which planet you come from?" The following are some of the questions they asked:
Please tell us what your name is.
... why your skin is so dark.
... what food you eat.
... why you made the crop circles.
... why you are wearing our school uniform.
... what alien songs sound like.
Though in a real interview, we don't always ask questions indirectly and thus the conversation doesn't sound very natural, it is a more interesting way to review the sentence pattern.
