強調(diào)句：英語的強調(diào)主要有兩種：一是強調(diào)非謂語(包括主語、賓語、狀語等)；二是強調(diào)謂語動詞。

(一)強調(diào)非謂語

其基本句型是：“It + is/was + 被強調(diào)的成分 + that/who + 其她成分”。It 沒有實意，只起語法作用，引導(dǎo)被強調(diào)的部分。當(dāng)被強調(diào)的是人時，可用who(m)/that, 其他情況用that。

例如：

It was I who/that met Jack yesterday. 是我昨天碰到了Jack.(強調(diào)主語)

It was Jack that/whom I met yesterday. 我昨天碰到的是Jack。(強調(diào)賓語)

It was yesterday that I met Jack. 是昨天我碰到了Jack.(強調(diào)時間狀語)

這幾句話復(fù)原為非強調(diào)句就是：I met Jack yesterday.

It is people, not things, that are decisive. 決定的因素是人，不是物。(強調(diào)主語)

It is because the book is very important for my present job that I bought it. 是因為這本書對我目前的工作很有用，我才買了它。(強調(diào)原因狀語)

It was in the supermarket that I gave the book to him. 是在那家超市里我給了他那本書。(強調(diào)地點狀語)

1、強調(diào)主語：

It was John who broke the window. 是John打破了窗子。

原句：John broke the window.

It is this overpass that will be pulled down. 將被拆掉的是這個天橋。

原句：This overpass will be pulled down.

It is the people who/that are really powerful. 真正有力量的是人民。

原句：The people are really powerful.
