答案:do we think1.强调句型结构:It is/was +被强调部分+that +其他部分。
如果被强调的部分是人,可用who代替that。
(1)时态的运用:强调句中的时态要根据原句的时态来确定用is 还是was。
即原句为过去的某种时态,则强调句中就用was;若原句为现在的某种时态,强调句中就用is。
(2)句型变化:①be 动词置于句首构成一般疑问句。
Was it in the park that you met him?你是在公园遇见他的吗?②特殊疑问词+be+it+that ...?构成特殊疑问句。

(4)对not ... until ...结构的强调:强调not ...until ...句型的时间状语时,要把not 与until 放在一起。

2.强调句型与相关句型的辨析(1)与定语从句的辨析:①It was in the factory that they met for the first time. ②It was the factory where they met for the first time.句①为强调句型,强调的是地点状语in the factory,该句可还原为:They met in the factory for the first time.。
句②为含有一个定语从句的主从复合句,where 引导的定语从句修饰先行词the factory,并在从句中作地点状语,不可用that。
(2)与主语从句的辨析:①It is the Great Wall that they are going to visit. ②It's true that they are going to visit the Great Wall.句①为强调句型,强调的是宾语the Great Wall。
该句可还原为:They are going to visit the Great Wall.。
句②为含有一个主语从句的复合句,that 引导的从句是句子的真正主语,it 为形式主语,该句可改为:That they are going to visit the Great Wall is true.。
(3)与状语从句的辨析:①It was at 8 o'clock that he arrived home. ②It was 8 o'clock when he arrived home.句①为强调句型,强调的是时间状语at 8 o'clock,该句可还原为:He arrived home at 8 o'clock.。
句②为when引导的时间状语从句的主从复合句。
(4)与同位语从句的辨析:①It is the fact that has made us unhappy. ②It is a fact that he has lost the game by one score.句①为强调句型,强调的是主语the fact,该句可还原为:The fact has made us unhappy.。
句②为同位语从句,that 引导的同位语从句解释的是fact 的内容。
3.谓语动词的强调强调句型不能强调谓语,如果需要强调谓语,用助动词do,did 或does。
He did write to you last week.他在上周确实给你写信了。
