重点句型

强调句型：It was …that …

【原句回放1】So it was with great excitement one morning in July 1914 that I

read this advertisement: (P3)

【点拨】 It was /is ＋被强调部分

＋that 从句.

其特点是就从句的主语、宾语、状语等成分进行强调，谓语除外。也就是说被强调部分肯定是从句的某一成分。被强调部分指人时用that / who均可，指事或物时用that。

其一般疑问句直接将is/was提前。特殊疑问句就是在一般疑问句的基础上再加特殊疑问词，

如：It was about 600 years ago that the first clock with a face and an hour hand was made.

（此题强调的是时间状语about 600 years ago）。

→

（变为一般疑问句）Was it about 600 years ago that the first clock with a face and

an hour hand was made?

→ (被强调部分提问)When was it that the first clock with a face and an hour hand was

made?

【考点提示】区别下面几个相似句型

a. It is ＋一段时间

＋since 从句

其特点是谓语动词用is ，且It is 后加时间段而不是时间点，若从句的谓语动词是瞬间性动词，

表示“自从某事发生以来已有多长时间了”，若是延续性动词则正好相反表示“自从不做某事以来

有多长时间了”。如It is 3 years since I smoked. (我不吸烟已有3年了)

It is 600 years since the first clock with a face and an hour hand was made.

( 600 years 是时间段，且谓语动词是is，表示“自从第一块钟表问世到现在已有600年了”)

That was really a splendid evening. It’s years ____ I enjoyed myself so much.

A. when

B. that

C. before

D. since

此题选D，

可译为“我多年没有玩得这么高兴了”。

b. It was/will be（not）＋一段时间＋before从句

其特点是后面用一段时间，谓语动词用一般过去式或将来时，译为“不久就…或多久才…”，

如: It will be more than 100 years before the city returns to its normal.

需要100年的时间这座城市才能恢复，其否定式也较常见，如:

It won’t be long before we know the result of the experiment.

不久我们就会知道试验的结果。

It was some time _____ we realized the truth.

A. when

B. until

C. since

D. before

此题选D，表示“过了一段时间就（才）…”有时用其否定式，表示“不久就（才）…”，

意思是“过了一段时间我们就认识到了真相”。

c. It was ＋

时间点

＋ when 从句

其特点是后跟表示时间点的名词，谓语动词用was,此句是 when引导的时间状语从句，句中it 表示

时间，有实际意义。

如：It was five o’clock when we arrived home yesterday.

( 昨天到家时，时间是5点)

区别：It was at five o’clock that we arrived home yesterday.

(则是强调句型，译为“正是5点我们到的家”)

【链接高考】

【考例1】 It is what you do rather than what you say ____ matters.

A. that

B. what

C. which

D. this

【答案与解析】此题选A，强调主语从句，译为“真正有关系的是你做的而不是你说的”

【考例2】— ______ that he managed to get the information?

— Oh, a friend of his helped me.

A. Where was it

B. What was it

C. How was it

D. Why was it

【答案与解析】此题考查强调句型的特殊疑问句形式，选C，译为“他是怎么设法得到这个消息的？”此外其一般疑问句形式为“Is/Was it ＋被强调部分 that 从句”。

【考例3】.I don’t mind her criticizing me, but ____is how she does it that I object to.

A. it

B. that

C. this

D. which

【答案与解析】此题选A， but 后面部分是强调句型，可译为：正是她作这件事情的方式我不同意。

一天我和往常一样乘坐公交车去上学，过了一会儿，我看见一位老人慢慢地上了车，看

上去他已经走了很长的一段路，他累得喘不过气来，已经不能再走路了。很明显他急需要休息，于是我把座位让给他，他很感激我，可是我认为帮助和尊敬老人是我的职责。当他向我表示感谢时，我感动了。正是在那时我才意识到帮助一个急需帮助的人是多么的重要。我发誓我会尽我所能对别人进行帮助。

写作过程：

（1）审题：______________________________________________

（2）列出相关词汇短语：___________________________________.

（3）谋篇：_______________________________________.

（4）写作：______________________________________

答案：

（1）审题：叙述一个故事，时态用一般现在时

（2）列出相关词汇短语：aboard，

breathless，

urgent，

gave my seat to，

gratitude， vital,

swear

（3）谋篇：It seemed that，It was obvious that，When，It was then that…， what，who

（4）范文：

One day I took a bus to school as usual. After a moment, I saw an old man boarding the bus slowly. It seemed that he had walked a long way. He was breathless and couldn’t walk any longer. It was obvious that he was in urgent need of a rest. So I gave my seat to him without hesitation. He expressed his gratitude to me. However, I think it is my duty to help and respect the old. When he thanked me, I was moved. It was then that I realized how vital it is to help a person in great need of help. I swore that I should do what I could to help others.

解析：

1.这篇作文用到很多本单元的知识点，如：aboard，breathless，urgent，gave my seat to，gratitude，vital， swear 以及本单元重点句型：It was …that 强调句型。

2．在写作过程的第二步（列出相关词汇短语），可以作为brainstorm的训练，列出所有自己能想到的词汇及短语，及连接词等等。

3．为了得到高分，同学一定要注意长短句的交替使用。如果第一句很长，第二句一定要尽量短。如果同学们有时间背诵新概念英语，对它的布局谋篇会有深刻的印象，对我们的写作会大有裨益。

4．最好有一两个从句，来凸显你的英文水平。如：It was obvious that 从句； what

引导的宾语从句；who 引导的定语从句。

5．精心选择过渡词，如：After a moment，So，However等。

答案与解析：

内容概要:本文叙述了一个加利弗利亚的小女孩参加滑冰的比赛的经过,从紧张到放松,最后取得了胜利。

21、选A。从后面的状语…to see her mother中可以得到启发。

22、选D。四处张望的目的就是“希望”见到她母亲。want一般没有现在分词形式，look forward to中的to是介词，后面应接名词或动名词，故B、C不能选用。

23、选B。根据常识可以排除另三个选项。

24、选D。Peggy是女孩，故为女儿。

25、选A。音乐响起。首句已呈现过该说法，另play在此系及物动词，形式不对。

26、选C。下文中有and letting it carry her 这样类似用法。

27、选B。从其后面的状态来看，Peggy心中充满了自信。

28、选B。表示进入溜冰场之前的最后几秒钟。该空可以根据常识和行文逻辑选定。

29、选D。表示自然消失而不是人为丢失，应该用gone，而不用lost。

30、选A。见第二节第一句。

31、选D。then表示时间上的顺承。

32、选C。凭语感选定。

33、选D。as表示“当……的同时”。因为表演完美，所以谢幕时人们欢呼。

34、选A。the other 后总是接同类名词，故此处选skaters。

35、选A。根据常识，自由滑冰运动员退场时，观众总是会欢呼的。

36、选C。选手关注的，除了观众，就是“裁判”了。

37、选A。第18空前再现了这一说法。

38、选D。等分数时的心情应是焦急的,故用anxiously。

39、选C。结果的宣布一般用announce。而战争、罪行等重大事件的宣布则多用declare。

40、选D。上文中提到了父母亲从加利弗利亚开车过来,所以Peggy可能来自California。
