一、强调句的概念:强调句是人们为了表达自己的意愿或情感而使用的一种形式。英语常用的强调结构是"It is (was)+被强调部分(主语、宾语或状语)+who (that)..."。通过各种方式对句子中的某个部分进行强调,从而起到修辞的作用。一般说来,被强调部分指人时,用who;指事物时用that,但that也可以指人。
二、强调句型的结构:
1. 陈述句的强调句型
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)+ 其他部分。例如:It was yesterday that he met Li Ping.
2. 一般疑问句的强调句型
把is/ was提到it前面,即:Was/It is + 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)+ 其他部分?例如: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 + 其他部分?
例如:When and where was it that you were born?
4.not … until … 句型的强调句
句型为:It is/ was not until + 被强调部分 + that + 其他部分
例如:It was not until his wife came back that he went to bed.
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。
5.谓语动词的强调 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。
例如:①Do sit down. 务必请坐。
②Do be careful when you cross the street. 过马路时,务必(千万)要小心啊!
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。
