Emphasis强调句型
1. 强调句通常使用It is (was)+被强调部分+that (who)+其他这一基本结构。强调句中最常用的连接词是that,但如果被强调部分是指人,则连接词也可以用who。例如:
It was for__this__reason that her uncle moved out of New York and settled down in a small village.
强调句也可以有变体形式,例如:
It may have been at__the__Christmas that John gave Mary a handbag.
强调句的判定方法是:将强调句中的it is/was以及连接词that或who去掉,如果句子仍然成立,成分仍然完整,则说明该句是强调句。
2. 强调句理论上可以强调除谓语以外的各种不同的成分。例如:
He has decided to buy a more advanced computer for his son in the nearby supermarket this year.
→It is he that/who has decided to buy a more advanced computer for his son in the nearby supermarket this year.
→It is a__more__advanced__computer that he has decided to buy for his son in the nearby supermarket this year.
→It is in__the__nearby__supermarket that he has decided to buy a more advanced computer for his son.
→It is this__year that he has decided to buy a more advanced computer for his son in the nearby supermarket.
【注意】 强调主语时注意主谓一致。例如:
I am to blame for the breakdown of the computer system.
→It is
