Existing methods generate questions that are divergent in content, hardly meaningful for pedagogical investigation, and heavily dependent on knowledge base and computational resources. Therefore, this paper proposed a method using summarization and syntax to achieve first question generation in a low-computing and high-efficient manner. The method selected key summary sentence from the English reading text to focus on the main idea of the text, and changed its presentation by applying translation rules. For the paraphrased key summary sentence, its subject-predicate-object components was analyzed to determine the subject of concern, matched the corresponding question words, and then generated the first question according to the grammatical rules. Experimental results show that the semantic similarity Bert Score and accuracy BLRU-4 of proposed method reach 67.15 and 16.07, respectively, which outperforms the baseline method in terms of syntax, semantics, and answerability.
