错误判断强调句的两种情况

错误判断强调句的两种情况

1. 将非强调句判为强调句

前面讲到强调时间状语时，通常要用it is…that…，而不用it is … when…，所以有的同学对于下题选择了A：

It was ten o’clock ______ he came back.

A. that                                          B. when

C. so                                            D. which

其实此题最佳答案为B，这不是一个强调句型。When引导的是一个时间状语从句，全句意为“当他回来时，时间是10点钟”。比较以下强调句型：

It was at ten o’clock that he came back. 他是10点钟回来的。

It was after ten o’clock that he came back. 他是在10点过后回来的。

It was before ten o’clock that he came back. 他是在10点前回来的。

再比较：(from www.hxen.net)

It is autumn when leaves fall. 当树叶落的时候就是秋天了。

It is in autumn that leaves fall. 树在秋天落叶。

另外，下面的句子也不是强调句型：

(1) It’s a long time ______ I met you last.

A. that                                            B. since

C. when                                         D. which

(2) It was more than a year now _____ he had seen her.

A. that                                            B. since

C. when                                          D. which

(3) "Was it here _____ you were away talking to a friend?" "Sure. But when I got back there, it was gone."

A. that                                            B. while

C. which                                         D. where          

以上三题均选B，即前面两句填since，其意为“自从”；第(3)填while，其意为“在…期间”。
