Intonation practice worksheet for English language learners, focusing on rising and falling intonation with questions and space for responses.

The task asks students to identify whether each sentence should use rising intonation (voice goes up at the end) or falling intonation (voice goes down at the end).

In English:
- Rising intonation is used for:
- Yes/No questions (questions that can be answered with *yes* or *no*).
- Polite offers or requests (e.g., “Can I help you?”).
- Falling intonation is used for:
- Wh- questions (questions starting with *who, what, where, when, why, how* — except when used for polite checking or surprise).
- Statements.
- Most regular questions that expect specific information.

Let’s go through each sentence:

1. How old are you?
→ *Wh-* question asking for specific info → Falling intonation

2. Can I help you?
→ Yes/No question, but also a polite offer → usually Rising intonation (common in spoken English for offers)

3. Where are you going?
→ *Wh-* question → Falling intonation

4. How do you go to school?
→ *How* question asking for method → Falling intonation

5. Is your mother a teacher?
→ Yes/No question (starts with *Is*) → Rising intonation

6. Do you like English?
→ Yes/No question (starts with *Do*) → Rising intonation

7. When is your birthday?
→ *Wh-* question → Falling intonation

8. Have you got any paper?
→ Yes/No question (starts with *Have*) → Rising intonation

9. May I help you?
→ Polite request/offer → typically Rising intonation

10. What can I do for you?
→ *What* question, but used as a polite open-ended offer (common in service contexts). In natural speech, this often has rising intonation, especially in customer service or helpful contexts — though strictly speaking, *what* questions usually fall. However, in conversational English, especially when offering help, it’s commonly rising. Since this is likely for beginner ESL practice and matches pattern of #2 and #9, we treat it as Rising intonation.

But let’s double-check standard teaching rules for Thai learners (based on common curriculum):
In many Thai English worksheets like this one, the rule taught is:
- All yes/no questions → rising
- All wh- questions → falling

Applying that strict rule:
1. How old…? → wh- → falling
2. Can I help you? → yes/no → rising
3. Where…? → wh- → falling
4. How do you…? → wh- → falling
5. Is your mother…? → yes/no → rising
6. Do you like…? → yes/no → rising
7. When…? → wh- → falling
8. Have you got…? → yes/no → rising
9. May I help you? → yes/no → rising
10. What can I do for you? → starts with *What*, so wh- → falling (even though in real life it may rise, textbooks usually classify it as falling)

Yes — in formal teaching materials like this (especially Thai school worksheets), #10 is treated as a *wh-* question → falling intonation.

So final classification:
1. Falling
2. Rising
3. Falling
4. Falling
5. Rising
6. Rising
7. Falling
8. Rising
9. Rising
10. Falling

Since the worksheet only provides blank lines (no checkboxes), the expected answer is likely to write “Rising” or “Falling” next to each, or perhaps just mark with ↑ or ↓ — but since the instruction says “จงระบุประโยคต่อไปนี้ว่าประโยคใดใช้เป็น Raising Intonation หรือ Falling intonation”, the student is to label each.

But the user only asked to *solve the problem*, and no format was specified for output — however, per instructions, we give only the Final Answer, listing each with its intonation type.

Let’s format clearly:

Final Answer:
1. Falling
2. Rising
3. Falling
4. Falling
5. Rising
6. Rising
7. Falling
8. Rising
9. Rising
10. Falling
