強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)的陳述式與疑問式
1. 強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)的陳述式
強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)的陳述式為“It is (was) + 被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分 + that (who)…”。該結(jié)構(gòu)可用于強(qiáng)調(diào)主語、賓語、狀語等,但不能強(qiáng)調(diào)謂語動詞。該句式中用that或who的區(qū)別是:當(dāng)被強(qiáng)調(diào)的指人時,用that或who均可;當(dāng)被強(qiáng)調(diào)的不是指人時,則只能用that(注意不用which)。如:
It was in the office that he was killed. 他是辦公室被殺害的。(強(qiáng)調(diào)in the office)
It is the children who broke the window. 是孩子們打破窗戶的。(強(qiáng)調(diào)the children)
It was to you and not anyone else that I lent the money. 我只借錢給你,不借給其他人。(強(qiáng)調(diào)to you and not anyone)
It is only when you have your own children that you realize the troubles of parenthood. 當(dāng)你有了自己的孩子,才能真切地了解到雙親的辛苦。(強(qiáng)調(diào)only when you have your own children)
2. 一般疑問句的強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)
一般疑問句的強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)就是將be提到句首,即使用“Is / Was it+ 被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分 + that / who…”。如:
Is it Tommy who answered the telephone? 是湯米接的電話嗎?
Is it from advertising that a newspaper earns a lot of its profits? 報紙獲利最多的部分是在于廣告收入嗎?
3. 特殊疑問句的強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)
特殊疑問句的強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)句型為“疑問詞(Who / What / When / Where / Why / How)+is / was it that…”這樣的形式。如:
When was it that he got married? 他是什么時候結(jié)婚的?
