涉及強(qiáng)調(diào)句的四個(gè)重要考點(diǎn)

一、考查結(jié)構(gòu)詞的選擇與使用

強(qiáng)調(diào)句的基本結(jié)構(gòu)是“It+be+被強(qiáng)調(diào)成分+that (who)…”，其中的結(jié)構(gòu)詞it和that (who)為高考英語考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句時(shí)最�？疾榈目键c(diǎn)。如：

1. I don’t mind her criticizing me, but _________ is how she does it that I object to.

A. it                     B. that                    C. this                   D. which

【解析】答案選A。此題考查it is ...that…這一強(qiáng)調(diào)句句型。句意為：我不介意她批評我，我反對的是她批評我的方式。句中空格處填強(qiáng)調(diào)句結(jié)構(gòu)詞it。

2. It is not who is right but what is right _________ is of importance.

A. which              B. it                         C. that                 D. this

【解析】答案選C。此題考查it is…that…這一強(qiáng)調(diào)句式，被強(qiáng)調(diào)的是not who is right but what is right，全句意為：重要的不是誰是對的，而是什么才是對的。句中空格處填強(qiáng)調(diào)句結(jié)構(gòu)詞that。

二、考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句的特殊疑問句形式

強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的陳述句形式和一般疑問句形式一般還好理解，但若以特殊疑問句形式出現(xiàn)，則很容易誤解。比較：

Jim told us the news.（非強(qiáng)調(diào)句）

It was Jim that told us the news.（強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的陳述句形式）

Was it Jim that told us the news?（強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的一般疑問句形式）

Who was it that told us the news?（強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的特殊疑問句形式）

特殊疑問句形式的強(qiáng)調(diào)句可視為對陳述句強(qiáng)調(diào)中的被強(qiáng)調(diào)成分提問得來，如對It was yesterday that he arrived. 這一句中的yesterday提問，即得到When was it that he arrived?

請看高考真題：

1. I just wonder _________ that makes him so excited.

A. why it does B. what he does C. how it is       D. what it is

【解析】答案選D。注意what it is that makes him so excited為賓語從句，用作動詞wonder的賓語。如果去掉主句I just wonder將原句改為疑問句則是：What is it that makes him so excited?

2.— _________ that he manage to get the information?

—Oh, a friend of his helped him.

A. Where was it        B. What was it       C. How was it         D. Why was it

【解析】答案選C 。由答語的內(nèi)容可知，空格處應(yīng)填how。

三、考查not…until…句式的強(qiáng)調(diào)句形式

not...until用于強(qiáng)調(diào)句型時(shí)的基本形式為“It is (was) not until…that…”。如：

1. It _________ we had stayed together for a couple of weeks _________ I found we had a lot in common.

A. was until; when                              B. was until; that

C. wasn’t until; when                          D. wasn’t until; that

【解析】答案選D。此題考查not…until…句式的強(qiáng)調(diào)形式。又如：It was not until she took off her dark glasses that I realized she was a famous film star. 直到她取下墨鏡，我才意識到她是一位著名影星。

2. It was not until she got home _________ Jennifer realized she had lost her keys.

A. when                  B. that                  C. where                 D. before

【解析】答案選B�？疾�not…until…句式的強(qiáng)調(diào)形式。又如：It was not until I met you that I knew real happiness. 直到我遇到你以后，我才真正體會到幸福。

四、考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句與非強(qiáng)調(diào)句的辨別

1. It will soon be five years _________ we came to live in Cairo.

A. that                    B. when                 C. since                  D. as

【解析】答案選C。此題不是考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，而是考查since的用法，句意為“我們來到開羅居住快五年了”。又如：It is two years since he left the country.  他離開這個(gè)國家已經(jīng)兩年了。/ It’s quite some time since we wrote to each other. 我們互相通信已有不少時(shí)間了。

2. “Was it here _________ you were away talking to a friend?” “Sure. But when I got back there, it was gone.”

A. that                      B. while                C. which               D. where   

【解析】答案選B。此題不是考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，而是考查while的用法，while在此表示“在……期間”，句意為：當(dāng)你離開去跟朋友說話的時(shí)候它在這兒嗎？
