强调： 强调是一种修辞方式，如前面所说的倒装就是一种重要的强调手段。 此外，还可以借助助词进行强调，例如： She did come yesterday; I saw her in the office. (她昨天确实来了;我在办公室见到她的。) 本讲要讨论的主要是it is that强调句， 即：将句子中除谓语动词以外的成分(主语、宾语、状语等)用it is that加以连接，组成强调句，如果是人，也可以用it is who, 例如： John bought a toy train for his son yesterday.(昨天约翰给他儿子买了辆玩具火车。) 强调主语：It was John who (或that)bought a toy train for his son yesterday. 强调宾语：It was a toy train that John bought for his son yesterday. 强调宾语(或目的)：It was for his son that John bought a toy train yesterday. 强调时间状语：It was yesterday that John bought a toy train for his son . 学习强调句要注意以下两点： 不要与主语从句相混淆，例如： It is well known that light travels in straight lines. (众所周至，光以直线传播。 主语从句) It was not until the early 18th century that the significance of the event was generally realized. |
