语法点一

[点津](1)强调句可以强调主语、宾语和状语,但不能强调谓语,强调谓语动词要用“do/does/did+动词原形”。

过马路时,务必要小心啊!
(2)当被强调部分是人时,可用that/who,其他情况都用that。
(3)强调时间、地点、原因时不能用when, where, why,只能用that。

语法点二
强调句型的疑问形式
1.一般疑问句:Is/Was+it+被强调部分+that/who+其他成分?
Was it Li Ping that/who he met yesterday?
他昨天遇到的人是李平吗?
Was it last year that you got the degree?
你是在去年获得学位的吗?
2.特殊疑问句:特殊疑问词+is/was+it+that+其他成分?
Where was it that you met Tom yesterday?
昨天你是在哪儿遇见汤姆的?
Who was it that came up with the bright idea?
究竟是谁提出了好的主意?
[点津] 强调句型也可用于宾语从句中,但注意语序要用陈述句语序:动词+特殊疑问词+it is/was+that+其他。

语法点三
not ... until句型强调句式
基本句式为:It is/was not until ... +that+句子其他部分。
He didn't go to bed until/till his wife came back.
→It was not until his wife came back that he went to bed.
直到妻子回来他才睡觉。
[点津] 强调句型中只能用until,不能用till。但如果不是强调句型,till,until可通用。且强调句型It is/was not until ...已经是否定句了,所以that后面的句子的谓语要用肯定形式。

语法点四
使用强调句型的几个注意事项
1.若被强调成分是主语,who/that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与被强调的主语保持一致。
It is he who/that often helps me with my English.
是他经常帮我学英语。
2.若被强调成分是作主语的代词,用主格;若是作宾语的代词,则用宾格。
It was he that helped me yesterday.
昨天帮我的人是他。
It was me that he helped yesterday.
他昨天帮的人是我。
3.强调句中只用两种时态,即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 ... that/who ...,其余的时态用It is ... that/who ...。
It is you who/that are to blame.
是你该受到指责。
It was chairman of the committee that we elected her.
我们选她当委员会主席。
4.强调句型的省略形式
句式特征为: 在一定的上下文中,强调句型的某个部分可以省略,解题时要特别注意将其复原并加以比较。
—Who is making so much noise in the garden?
——是谁在花园里弄这么大的噪音?
—It is the children (who are making so much noise in the garden).
——是孩子们。
5.强调句型和定语从句的结合
句式特征为: 在强调句型的被强调部分或其他部分中找出一个先行词,附上修饰该部分的定语从句,这样整个句子结构就变得非常复杂。应特别注意不要混淆定语从句的关系词和强调句型中的that/who部分。
It was playing computer games that cost the boy plenty of time which he ought to have spent doing his lessons.
是玩电脑游戏花去了这个孩子大量的应该用在功课上的时间。
6.易与强调句混淆的几个句型
(1)It is/was +时间+when ...“当……的时候;时间是……”。when 引导的是时间状语从句,主句中的 it 指时间,表语由具体的时间充当。试比较:
It was ten o'clock when we got home last night.
我们昨晚到家时十点了。(状语从句)
It was at ten o'clock that we got home last night.
我们昨晚是在十点到家的。
此句是强调句,去掉“It was ...that”后句子仍然完整合理,注意that不能改成when。而上句不是强调句。
(2)It was/will be ... before ... “过……就……”;
It was not/will not be ... before ... “不久……就……”。主句中的 it 指时间,表语多是long, not long, three days, two weeks 等表示“一段时间”的词或短语。试比较:
It was three days before he went to Beijing.
三天后他就去了北京。
It will not be long before he finishes his job.
不久他就完成了工作。
It was three days ago that he went to Beijing.
他是三天前去的北京。
此句是强调句,去掉“It was ... that”后句子仍然完整合理。
