强调句型
一、强调句型的基本用法
1.强调句结构:It is / was + 被强调部分+that+ 句子的其余部分。
2.句型解读:
(1) it是引导词,强调的内容可以是句子的主语、宾语、状语。如果被强调的部分是人,that 可用who代替,其他情况一律用that。
(2) 验证强调句的方法: 去掉It is / was…that 结构后,可以把被强调的部分与句子其余部分还原为一个完整的句子。
二、强调句型的考点
【例句观察】
(1) It was Edison who invented the lamp.
(2) It is Edison who invents the lamp.
【结论1】注意时态的一致性。原句中用的是过去的某种时态, 用it was…that…;原句中用的是现在或将来的某种时态,用it is…that…
【例句观察】
It is I that am your English teacher.
【结论2】当被强调的部分是主语时,注意保持主谓一致。
【例句观察】
He didn't go to bed until he finished his homework. (对画线部分进行强调)
→ It wasn't until he finished his homework that he went to bed. (强调句)
【结论3】not …until …结构用于强调句中,not 要提前到until之前,放在be动词后。即:It wasn't until …that +句子的其余部分。
【例句观察】
Was it not until he finished his homework that he went to bed?
【结论4】强调句的一般疑问句形式:Is / Was it + 被强调部分+ that+句子的其余部分。
【完成句子】
When was it that he went to bed?
【结论5】强调句的特殊疑问句形式:特殊疑问词+ is / was it+ that + 句子的其余部分。
【例句观察】
I really don't know when it was that he went to bed.
【结论6】含有强调句型的特殊疑问句作宾语从句时,注意用陈述语序。
【疑难】It is in the city where he was born that he works.
他工作的地方是他出生的那个城市。
【疑难剖析】强调句中的被强调部分含有一个定语从句,要注意区别、分析。
It is / was +被强调部分+定语从句+that (who)+句子的其余部分
