Do you wish to walk?

In such a question as the last one, if emphasis be given in turn to the words you, wish, walk, the answer might still be yes or no; and yet the meaning of the answer would be different in each case.

Do you wish to walk? Yes, I do.

Do you wish to walk? No, I do not wish to walk; but suppose I must.

Do you wish to walk? No, I would rather ride.
