We use a statement question when we want to express our surprise at the previous statement. In some cases, we use it to check if our information is correct. In these cases, we raise our voice at the end of the statement.
Example:
A: I want to be a doctor. 
B: You want to be a doctor? 
4. Listen to the conversations. Pay attention to the intonation in the statement questions. Then practise the conversations with a partner. 🎧
