Plants can grow indoors. In addition, plants could you introduceto me < /name> which even beginners are not likely to fail to grow?Figure 3.3. Example of Question Crossing over Multiple Sentences.3.3.7 Sentence containing more than one question itemOne hundred questions were selected at random from sentences each containingmore than one question item and their linguistic characteristics were classified. Ofthose questions, more than 80% corresponded to one of the five types as follows;Type 1 Coordinate clauses marked by conjunctions.Type 2 Continuous clauses patternized in sequences of nominals including interrogatives,another nominal and particles.Type 3 Continuous clauses patternized in sequences of interrogatives, particles,and punctuations.Type 4 Continuous clauses after nominals including interrogatives.Type 5 Noun phrases connected by particles in parallel.Table 3.4 shows examples of relations between questions in a sentence. Inthe example of Type 1, the second question was asked based on the assumptionthat the first question was answered. In this type, the correct answer cannotbe selected only when individual questions are simply extracted one-by-one toindividually identify the question type.However, besides the Type1, in their expression such as in Table 3.4, certainpatterns can be recognized. Thus we assume that processing of sentencescontaining more than one question item can be handled by relatively simple patternprocessing. Although identification of the relations between multiple relatedquestions are necessary in the case of Type 1, such cases are not discussed in27
