一、

考查强调结构的基本形式

强调结构的基本形式是“It is / was + 被强调部分 + that / who...”,可以用来强调主语、宾语、状语等,一般不能强调谓语动词。

三、考查特殊疑问句的强调结构

特殊疑问句的强调结构句型为：特殊疑问词( Who / What / When / Where / Why / How...)+is / was it that...?例如：

Why was it that Li Lei came late again?

这类强调结构置于从句中时应使用陈述语序：

The question is who it is that we can trust.

A. who is itB. who it is C. it is who D. it is whom

强调结构与其它含有it 的结构非常相似,很容易混淆。区别的办法是去掉 It is / was... that ...结构后,句子依然成立的是强调结构。
