1、强调句型考点解读 强调句型是 高中英语中一个重要的语法项目，是高考重要考点之一。其基本结构为：It + be+ 被强调部分that句子其余部分。本文拟结合高考试题对强调句型的用法作如下归纳。 一、基本用法 1在强调句型中，能够被强调的句子成分通常为主语、宾语、状语等，不能用来强调谓语动词、表语、补语、让步状语、条件状语等。当被强调部分为 sb.，且在句中作主语时，可用 who，也可用 that，其它情况一律用 that。强调主语时，that 后的谓语动词必须与被强调的主语人称与数保持一致。如： Im going to meet my friend at the airport tomorrow
2、. It is I who am going to meet my friend at the airport tomorrow.(强调主语) It is my friend that Im going to meet at the airport tomorrow.(强调宾语) It is at the airport that Im going to meet my friend tomorrow.(强调地点状语) It is tomorrow that Im going to meet my friend at the airport.(强调时间状语) 2在强调结构中，无论被强调的是人还
3、是物，单数还是复数，be 动词一律用单数 is/was 形式。如果原句的谓语动词时态是过去范畴，就用 was; 如果原句的谓语动词时态是现在范畴，就用 is。也可以用“情态动词be“形式。例如： It is Tom and Mary who will be fined. It was yesterday that he arrived here. It might be in the morning that he broke into the house. 二、考点解读 1强调句型的一般疑问句结构为：“Is /Was it+ 被强调部分that句子其余部分?” 例 1Was it durin
