强调句典型易错题分析

 

请看下面的题:

_____ was very ______ that little Jim wrote the letter.

A. It, careful                          B. It, carefully

C. He, careful                        D. He, carefully

【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选,但最有可能误选的可能是A,认为这是一个普通的系表结构,即认为第二空要填形容词作表语。

【分析】其实,此题是一个强调句,其非强调形式为 Little Jim wrote the letter very carefully. 若用 it is … that… 的强调句式强调其中的状语 very carefully 即为上面一题的题干,所以答案应选B。请看下面几例,也属强调结构(from www.hxen.net):

(1) It was when she was about to go to bed ______ the telephone rang.

A. since        B. as            C. that          D. then

答案选C,被强调成分为 when she was about to go to bed 这一时间状语从句。

(2) It may have been at Christmas _____ John gave Mary a handbag.

A. before      B. who        C. that          D. when

答案选C,被强调成分为 at Christmas,其中的动词 be 采用了 may have been 这一较为复杂的形式。
