為了突出我們想表達的內(nèi)容,我們通常會采用一些方法讓其他人注意到這個部分,而強調(diào)句就是這樣的一個手段。本文總結(jié)了強調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)的基本用法和使用時應(yīng)注意的十個細節(jié)。
基本用法
為了強調(diào)句子的某一成分(通常是主語、賓語或狀語)常用強調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu):
It is(was)+被強調(diào)部分+that(who)...
例如:
I met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.
強調(diào)主語:It was I that(who) met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.
強調(diào)賓語:It was Li Ming that I met at the railway station yesterday.
強調(diào)地點狀語:It was at the railway station that I met Li Ming yesterday.
強調(diào)時間狀語:It was yesterday that I met Li Ming at the railway station.
十個細節(jié)
1. 一般來說,原句的謂語動詞如果是現(xiàn)在時或?qū)頃r,用It is ... that(who)... 結(jié)構(gòu);如果是過去的各種時態(tài)用It was... that(who)... 結(jié)構(gòu)。如:
It is Tom that /who goes to school on foot every day.
It was Tom that /who broke the window yesterday.
2. 強調(diào)主語時,that/who后面的謂語動詞要與被強調(diào)部分的人稱與數(shù)要保持一致。如:
It is I that/who am a teacher.
3. 即使被強調(diào)的部分是復(fù)數(shù),也用it is或it was。如:
It is they what/ who often help me with my homework.
4. 在強調(diào)時間、地點,方式或原因狀語時,不要用when, where, how, why, 而用that;另外,只有強調(diào)人時,才可以用who代替that。如:
It was in front of the bank that the old lady was robbed.
5. 被強調(diào)的部分是代詞,主語用主格,賓語用賓格。如:
It was he that helped me yesterday.
It was me that he helped yesterday.
6. 在強調(diào)一般疑問句中的某一成分時,把is/was提前。如:
普通句:Did this happen in Beijing?
強調(diào)句:Was it in Beijing that this happened?
7. 特殊疑問句的強調(diào)句結(jié)構(gòu)是:
被強調(diào)部分(通常是疑問詞)+is/was it that+... 如:
普通句:Where are you born?
強調(diào)句:Where was it that you were born?
8. 強調(diào)部分既包括人又包括物時,用that不用who。如:
It was the things and people that they remembered that they were talking about.
9. not ... until ... 句型的強調(diào)句,用It is/ was not until + 被強調(diào)部分 + that + 其他部分。如:
普通句:He didnt go to bed until/ till his wife came back.
強調(diào)句:It was not until his wife came back that he went to bed.
此句型只用until,不用till。但如果不是強調(diào)句型,till, until可通用;因為句型中It is/ was not ... 已經(jīng)是否定句了,that后面的從句要用肯定句,切勿再用否定句了。
10. 強調(diào)謂語動詞,不可用It is/ was ... that ... 結(jié)構(gòu),而要用助動詞do/ does或did,其后用原形,相當于漢語的“的確”“真的”“一定”“務(wù)必”。如:
Do sit down.
He did write to you last week.
Do be careful when you cross the street.
注意:此種強調(diào)只能強調(diào)謂語動詞為一般現(xiàn)在時或一般過去時的情況,進行時或完成時是不能用do, does, did來強調(diào)的。
強調(diào)句是一種非常好用的句型,能夠清楚明確地指出你想要表達的重點。
因此,建議考生在寫作中恰當運用。endprint
