語法：強調
強調結構是用特定的方法使句子中的某個部分突出出來，以達到強化這個部分的目的。在英語中，強調的方法有很多，包括運用語言、語調、單詞、短語以及語法等手段。常見的強調形式：
1． 增加單詞來強調
此類單詞有：so,such,just,right,very,pretty,single,really,indeed以及反身代詞等。如：
I have never seen such a lazy person in my whole life.（這么）
So angry was he that he couldn’t speak.
Fortunately,he was just in time for the first train in the morning.（剛好）
It’s unbelievable that the woman herself could lift so heavy a box.（自己一個人）
This is the very English dictionary that I have been looking for.（就是，正是）
The manager was right in the office when I arrived at the company by metro (地鐵)。（正好）
2． 增加短語來強調
常用的短語有：on earth,in the world,by no means(位于句首需用倒裝）,not…at all等。如：
“What on earth are you doing now?” asked the policeman.（究竟，到底）
Though we are good friends,I don’t agree with you at all this time.（根本不）
I have to point out that this job can by no means be accomplished overnight.（決不）
3． 用助動詞do,does,did來強調
可以用來強調肯定陳述句或祈使句的動詞。如：
Do come early tomorrow morning,or you will be fined.（務必，一定）
The new exchange student does hope to go to the evening party with us.（確實）
My mother did sing well in the past because she used to be a teacher.（的確，確實）
4. 將“地點”提前加以強調
On the table were some flowers. 桌上擺了一些花。
5．用強調句來強調
強調句的基本結構是It + be +被強調部分+that (who/whom)+原句剩余部分。被強調部分可以是簡單句中除謂語以外的其它成分，也可以是主從復合句中的從句。如：
It was our we that/who saved my little younger sister.（強調主語）
It was him that/whom they saw stealing yesterday in the supermarket.（強調賓語）
It is by sending e-mail that they keep in touch with each other.（強調狀語）
It was only when I reread this poem recently that I began to appreciate its beauty.（強調從句）
注意：
（1） 強調句形中的it沒有實際意義，由于it處在主語位置，即使被強調的主語是復數，動詞只用單數。強調主語時用主格。如：
It was Tom and Mike that /who helped us out.
It is we who/that have passed the driving test.
（2） 強調句的一般疑問句就是直接把動詞置于句首；特殊疑問句就是把被強調的特殊疑問詞置于句首。如：
Is it next week that we will hold another football match ?
Who was it that taught you English ten years ago ?
How was it that you managed to deal with such difficult problems ?
（3） 強調not …until…結構時，not要放在until之前。即：It is/was not until…that….如：It was not until all fish died that people realized how serious pollution was.
It was not until midnight that they came back.
not…until…還可以這樣強調：
Not until all fish died did people realize how serious pollution was.
Not until midnight did they come back.
（4） 在強調時間、地點、原因或方式狀語時，一律用that，而不用when,where,why或how等；特別要注意不能同定語從句等相混淆。如：
Was it during World War II that he lost his devoted son. ?
It was for this reason that the naughty boy got severely punished.
區別強調句型和定語從句的方法是：若將和去掉而句中不缺成分，結構完整，說明原句是強調句；若結構不完整，則說明原句為定語從句。試比較:
It was on October 5,1999 that the new city was founded.(強調句）
那個新城市確實是于1999年10月5日成立的。
It was October 5,1999 when their first son was born.(定語從句)
他們第一個兒子的出生時間是1999年10月5日。
（5） 強調句與其它的交融使用
It was the village where I was brought up that I visited yesterday.
昨天我們參觀的是我在那長大的村子。（與定語從句結合）
I can’t remember how many years ago it was that I entered the factory.
我記不清到底是多少年前進廠的了。（與賓語從句的結合）
When I asked him when it was that he took my dictionary,he made no answer.
我問他究竟何時拿了我的字典，他沒吱聲。（與狀語從句的結合）
