 强调句型是英语中的一种重要的句子结构，它是英语学习者必须掌握的一种重点句型，因而在高考英语试卷上占有一席之地。在高中教材及练习中同学们见到时总会出现这样或那样的问题， 本文拟结合高考试题对强调句型的各个主要方面作一归纳。

一．    基本结构。

强调句型的基本结构是：”It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+其它成分”.它可以对除谓语以外的成分进行强调。

It is what you do rather than what you say that matters.  （强调主语）

It is my daughter who/that/whom I feel proud of.        （强调宾语）

It was only when I reread his poems recently that I began to appreciate their beauty.  （强调时间状语）

It was at the airport that your sister saw me off yesterday.  （强调地点状语）

二．    高考重难点突破

  1.   not …until的强调句。

   It was not until she took off her dark glasses that I realized she was a famous singer.

   It is not until all the passengers get on it that the bus will go.

2.       强调句型的一般疑问式及特殊疑问式。

Was it in this shop that you lost your wallet?

Was it in 1969 that the American astronaut succeeded in landing on the moon?

Where was it that he found the pancake?

Who was it that cleaned the classroom yesterday?

3.       强调句型的特殊疑问式用在宾语从句中，从句必须使用陈述语序。

He asked me who it was that took his umbrella.

I wonder what it was that caused so many strange things to happen.

4.强调句型与定语从句或名词性从句的混用。

It was on the farm where we worked that I got to know her.

It is not who is right but what is right that is of importance.

5.强调句型与表推测的情态动词混用。

It might be Tom that I met at the railway station yesterday.

It must have been Tom that parked the car here, as he is the only one with a car.

6．强调句型与时间状语从句的辨析。当强调句型强调时间状语时，去掉“It is/was…that”时，原句仍然成立，而在时间状语从句中，若去掉“It is/was 和连词when/before”时，原句不能成立。试比较：

It was at 14:28 that the terrible earthquake broke out.  （强调句型）

It was 14:28 when the terrible earthquake broke out.    （状语从句）

 三、强调句的主要用法    
    1、当强调宾语时，that/whom可省略；
    
    2、有时可用It might be…that…，It must have been…that…句型表示强调；
    
    3、强调句的附加疑问句。
    
    It was at this shop that you bought the watch, wasn’t it? 你就是在这家商店买的手表，是不是？
    
    注：附加疑问句是针对主句提出的，故附加疑问句的主语用it，助动词用is(was)。
    
    以下情况不能使用强调句型
    
    1．不能强调由if、though 引导的从句。例如：
    
    If it rains, we won't go out.
    
    如果下雨，我们就不出去。
    
    [错误] It is if it rains that we won't go out.
    
    We'll try to finish the work on time though we are short of manpower.
    
    虽然我们缺乏人力，我们还是要设法按时完成这项工作。
    
    [错误] It is though we are short of manpower that we'll try to finish the work on time.
    
    2．不可强调as、since引导的状语从句，但是可以强调because引导的原因状语从句。例如：
    
    I do it because I like it.
    
    因为我喜欢，我才干。
    
    [正确] It is because I like it that I do it.
    
    Since no one is against it, we'll adopt the proposal.
    
    既然没有人反对，这个议案我们就通过了。
    
    [错误] It is since no one is against it that we'll adopt the proposal.
    
    3．不能强调so that引起的结果状语从句，但可以强调so that引起的目的状语从句。
    
    例如：
    
    He didn't plan his time well, so that he didn't finish the work on time.
    
    他没有把时间计划好，结果没有按时完成这项工作。
    
    [错误] It was he didn't plan his time well that so that he ...
