在英语中,我们常用It is/was(not)… who/that结构来突出强调句子的某一成分(主语,宾语或状语)。在这个句型中,it没有词汇意义,只是引出被强调的成分。如果被强调的成分是表人的词,用who或that连接都可以。如果是其它成分,则一律用that来连接。如
It is Tom who/that has broken the record. It was in this room that Tom was born.
一、在使用强调句型时须注意的几个问题:
A) 原句子是现在时或将来时,强调句用It is +被强调的部分 + that (who)…;若原句子是过去时,强调句用:It was +被强调的部分 + that (who)…
(1) Tom will work in China.---It is in China that Tom will work.
(2) I studied at this schooltwo years ago.
—It was at this school that I studied two years ago.
B) 即使被强调部分是复数,It后始终用单数形式。如
Jim and Tom gave us much help.--It was Jim and Tom that gave us much help.
C) 强调人时,可用who/ that,但若强调时间、地点、原因、方式等时,不能用
when, where, why, how,仍用that,如:It is Jim who / that helps us make progress.
It was in front of the bank that the old lady was robbed.
It was because of the heavy rain that he came late.
D)被强调成分是主语,who/that后谓语动词要在人称和数上与原句主语一致。
(1) It is I who am right.(2) It is the students who are lovely.
E)被强调成分是作主语的代词,用主格,是作宾语的代词,用宾格
It was he that helped me yesterday. It was me that he helped yesterday.
F)疑问句强调:be + it +…that+…? (一般)/特殊疑问词+be + it that+…?(特殊 ) 如:(1)Was it you who put the book on my desk?(2) What is it that made him so angry?
G)双宾语强调:无论强调哪个宾语,都必须根据动词的搭配关系,加上to或for等介词。如:原句:He gave Mary a pen.
强调直宾:It was Mary that he gave a pen to. 强调间宾:It was a pen that he gave to Mary.
(H)强调结构作宾语时要用陈述句语序。如:I don’t know where it is that he has gone.强调主语时,who或that后面的谓语形式须与被强调的主语保持一致。如:
Lily speaks Chinese very well. —It is Lily that speaks Chinese very well.
(I) 强调句型不用于强调谓语、表语、since, as等引导的原因状语从句。
二、 not…until结构中时间状语的强调:It is/was not until+时间状语+that+… 如:I didn’t go to bed until twelve o’clock last night.
---It was not until twelve o’clock last night that I went to bed.
三、反意疑问句:It was Tom that broke the door, wasn’t it?
四、强调结构的判断:去掉it is/was和that后,剩余部分(经调整后) 是否依然是个完整的句子,若是,就是强调结构,否则就不是。
It is a pity that you could not come. (不是)
It was at ten that he got home. (是)
It is Tom who/that has broken the record. It was in this room that Tom was born.
