Part 2 Grammar: 强调句及It用法
I Analysis
一. 强调句
It was with great joy ___he received the news that his lost daughter had been found. (2004 福建)
A. because B. which C. since D. that
强调句型的陈述句:It is/ was + 被强调部分(通常是主语、宾语或状语)+ that/ who(当强调主语且主语指人)+ 其它部分。
I met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.强调主语:It was I that (who) met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.
It was Li Ming that I met at the railway station yesterday.
It was at the railway station that I met Li Ming yesterday.
It was yesterday that I met Li Ming at the railway station.
2、一般疑问句的强调句型:同上,只是把is/ was提到it前面。e.g. Was it yesterday that he met Li Ping?
3、特殊疑问句的强调句型:被强调部分(通常是疑问代词或疑问副词)+ is/ was + it + that/ who + 其它部分?e.g. When and where was it that you were born?
5、注意:构成强调句的it本身没有词义;强调句中的连接词一般只用that, who,即使在强调时间状语和地点状语时也如此,that, who不可省略;强调句中的时态只用两种,一般现在时和一般过去时。原句谓语动词是一般过去时、过去完成时和过去进行时,用It was … ,其余的时态用It is … 。
6. not … until … 句型的强调句
It was ___back home after the experiment. (2004 湖北)A. not until midnight did he go
B. until midnight that he didn’t goC. not until midnight that he went
D. until midnight when he didn’t go
1、句型为:It is/ was not until + 被强调部分 + that + 其它部分
e.g. 普通句:He didn’t go to bed until/ till his wife came back.
强调句:It was not until his wife came back that he went to bed.
2、注意:此句型只用until,不用till。但如果不是强调句型,till, until可通用;因为句型中It is/ was not … 已经是否定句了,that后面的从句要用肯定句,切勿再用否定句了。
二.谓语动词的强调
1、It is/ was … that … 结构不能强调谓语,如果需要强调谓语时,用助动词do/ does或did。
e.g. Do sit down. 务必请坐。He did write to you last week. 上周他确实给你写了信。
2、注意:此种强调只用do/ does和did ,没有别的形式;过去时用did ,后面的谓语动词用原形。
三.It 用法
1.It is important (necessary, right, strange, natural…) that…
该句型和上一句同属一个句型。由于主句中的形容词不同,that后的从句中要用虚拟语气(should+动词原形)should 可以省去。建议记住该句型中的形容词。
It is important that we (should) learn English well. It is necessary that he (should) remember these words.
2. It is said (reported, learned)/ suggested (ordered…) that…
该句型主句中的过去分词是表示请求、建议、命令等词时,that后的从句要用虚拟语气 (should+动词原形)。可以省略,常译为“据建议;有命令……”
It is suggested that the meeting (should) be put off.
It was ordered that we (should) arrive there in two hours.
3. It is a pity (a shame…) that …
在该句型中,that后的从句一般用虚拟语气(should+动词原形),should可以省去,表示出乎意料,常译为“竟然”。没有这种意义时,则不用虚拟语气。
It is a pity that such a thing (should) happen in your class.这种事竟然发生在你们班上,真是遗憾。
4. It is time (about time, high time) that…
该句型中that后的从句应该用虚拟语气,值得注意的是:常用过去时态表示虚拟,有时也用should+动词原形,should 不能省。常译为“是(正是)……的时候……”
It is time that children should go to bed.=It is time that children went to bed.
5. It is the first (second, …)time that…
该句型应和上一个句型区别开来。该句型中不用虚拟语气,而用完成时态。至于用哪种完成时态,由主句的谓语动词的时态来决定。如果是一般现在时,从句用现在完成时态;如果是一般过去时,从句则用过去完成时态。该结构中that可以省去;it有时用this替换,常译为“是第一(二,…)次…”。
6. It is …since…
该句型主要用作处理瞬间动词的完成时,要和表示一段时间的时间状语连用。主句中是时间作表语,其时态是现在时和完成时,引导的从句通常是一般过去时态,而且是瞬间动词。如果主句是一般过去时,从句则用过去完成时。It is almost five years ___we saw each other last time. (2005 北京)
A. before
B. since
C. after
D. when
7. It be…before…
该句型主句中的it指时间,主句中的时态常是一般将来时或过去时两种时态,主句中的表语多是long ,not long ,3 days, 2 weeks等表示时间段的词和短语。常译为“…之后才”,“没过……就……”
It was 3 days before he went to Beijing.
It will not be long before he finishes his job.
8. It happens (seems, looks, appears) that…
该句型中的it 是形式主语,that 引导的是主语从句,主句中的happen, seem等词是不及物动词。
It happened (so happened) that he met his teacher in the street. (碰巧……)
The Foreign Minister said, “___our hope that the two sides will work towards peace.” (2004北京)
A. This is B. There is C. That is D. It is
9.It is no good (use) doing sth.该句型中的真正主语是动名词短语,主句中的表语可以是 no good (not any good), no use (not any use ).
It is no good learning English without speaking English.
10. We think it important to learn a foreign language.
该句型中的it作形式宾语。为了记忆方便我们可称该句型为“7123结构”. 7指主句中的常用的动词:think, believe, make, find, consider, feel, take. 1指的是形式宾语it . 2指的是宾补的两种形式:形容词和名词3指的是真正宾语的三种形式:不定式短语,动名词短语或that引导的宾语从句。

Part 3 综合能力训练
Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people possess certain qualities, which others do not.
The first thing you must remember is that in order to succeed, you must be optimistic. If you do not expect to win, you will not try as hard as those who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear aim and a reason for doing something because motivation is a key to achieving success. If you do not have an aim, then you will not be motivated to work hard and put your performance under the microscope to make sure that every detail is right.
Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity---thinking about things in a different way and wondering how others would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones.
Reading is another to success, as it will help you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about people like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang, who have achieved amazing success in their areas of business.
Practicing is equally important if you want to success because practice makes perfect. Practise every day at whatever career you are in, and by doing so, you will see yourself, your business and your self-confidence begin to grow. If you feel confident about what you do, this confidence will make other people believe in you as well. Your colleagues will be happy to work with you, and your boss will give you more responsibility. Finally if you are a successful person, you will be able to look people in the eye and smile confidently.
Success is yours for the taking! Cheers!
