语法复习五：强调句、
It
的用法、省略和插入语

一、强调句

（一）强调句句型













1
、陈述句的强调句型：
It is/ was +
被强调部分（通常是主语、宾语或状语）
+ that/ who
（当
e.g. It was
yesterday
that he met Li Ping.
2
、一般疑问句的强调句型：同上，只是把
is/ was
提到
it
前面。

e.g. Was it
yesterday
that he met Li Ping?
3
、< br>特殊疑问句的强调句型：
被强调部分
（通常是疑问代词或疑问副词）
+ is/ was + it + that/ who
e.g.
When and where
was it that you were born?
4
、强调句例句：针对
I met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.
句子进行强调。

强调主语：
It was
I
that (who) met Li Ming at the railway station yesterday.

强调宾语：
It was
Li Ming
that I met at the railway station yesterday.
强调地点状语：
It was
at the railway

station
that I met Li Ming yesterday.
强调时间状语：
It was
yesterday
that I met Li Ming at the railway station.
5、注意：构成强调句的
it
本身没有词义；强调句中的连接词一般只用
that, who
，即使在强
强调主语且主语指人）
+
其它部分。

+
其它部分？

调时间状语和地点状语时也如此，
that, w ho
不可省略；
强调句中的时态只用两种，
一般现在时和
一般过去时。原句谓 语动词是一般过去时、过去完成时和过去进行时，用
It was …
，其余的时
态用
It is …
。

（二）
not … until …
句型的强调句





1
、句型为：
It is/ was not until +
被强调部分

+ that +
其它部分

e.g.
普通句：
He didn’t go to bed until/ till his wife came back.


强调句：
It was
not until his wife came back
that he went to bed.
2
、注意：此句型只用
until
，不用
till
。但如果不是强调句型，
till, until
可通用；因为句型中
It is/ was not …
已经是否定句了，
that
后面的从句要用肯定句，切勿再用否定句了。

（三）谓语动词的强调







1
、
It is/ was … that …
结构不能强调谓语，如果需要强调谓语时，用助动词
do/ does
或
did
。

e.g.
Do
sit down.
务必请坐。



He
did
write to you last week.
上周他确实给你写了信。

Do
be careful when you cross the street.
过马路时，务必（千万）要小心啊！

2
、注意：此种强调只用
do/
does
和
did
，没有别的形式；过去时用
did
，后面的谓语动词
用原形。

二、
It
的用法

（一）作人称代词





1
、
it
代替前面（或后面）的单数名词或分句等所表示的事物。

e.g. You cannot eat your cake but have it.
（
it
代替前面的
cake
）



Although we cannot see it, there is air all around us.
（
it
代替后面的
air
）

They say he has left town, but I don’t believe it.

（
it
代替前面
They…town
分句中的情况）

2
、代替有生命但不能或不必分阴阳性的东西（包括婴儿）
。

e.g. Yesterday we saw a big tree. It was fully twenty metres high.
（
it
代替前面的
tree
）



















The baby cried because it was hungry.
（
it
代替前面的
baby
）

----
It’s me.

3
、在某些习惯说法中，可以代替人。

e.g. ---- Someone is knocking at the door, Peter.
---- Who is it?


---- Who are singing?

---- It is the children.
---- The light is still on in the lab. It must be the third-year students doing the experiment. < br>4
、
it
与
one
的区别：这两个词都可以代表前面说过的名 词，但
it
用于同名同物的场合；
one
e.g. ---- Do you still have the bicycle?


---- Is this knife yours?

---- No, I have sold
it
.
则用于同名异物的场合。

----
No. It is Xiao Zhang’s. Mine is the
one
on the desk.
5
、
it
与
that
的区别：两词都可代替某 一特定名词，但
that
指同一类，并非同一个。

e.g. The climate of South China is mild
（温和的）
; I like
it
very much.
（
it
指
the climate of South

The climate of South China is much better than
that
of Japan.
（
that
指
the climate
）

China
）

（二）作无人称代词

it
作无人 称代词时，
除了句中找不到它所代表的词语外，另一个特点是它后面的内容都是表
It is fine (rainy, windy, etc.).
It is noon.
It is a half hour’s walk to the factory.

It is eighteen square metres in area.
What does it matter?
用以帮助改变句子结构，使句子的某一成分受到强调。
“
It
is
(was)
+
所强调的成分

+
that
示天气、时间、距离、度量衡及情况等。

（三）作强调词，构成强调结构

(who) +
其它成分。
”在 这个句型中，
it
本身没有词义。详见“一、强调句”
。

（四）引导词
it
作形式主语（宾语）



为了使句子平衡，
常采用形式主语
（或宾语）
it
，
而把真正的主语
（或宾语）
置于句子后面。
e.g. It takes half an hour to go there on foot.
（
It
与
to go there on foot
之间夹有
takes half an hour
通常引导词
it
与它所代替的句子成分中间要夹有某些词。

四个词）





We
thought
it
strange
that
Mr
Smith
did
not
come
last
night.
（
it
与
that
从句中间夹有

strange
）

但有时
it
与所替代部分之间并不夹有其它词。

e.g. You may depend on it that they will support you.
（因 为介词
on
之后一般不直接接
that
引导
的宾语从句。注意：it
不是多余的，不能当作错句）

to
(go there).
He did not give me the chance, though he had promised
to
(give me the chance).

---- No, but I want to be.

to
之后加上
be< br>或
have
。

e.g. ---- Are you an engineer?

4
、省略表语。

e.g. ---- Are you thirsty?
5

e.g. Let’s meet at the same place as (we met) yesterday.


---- Have you finished your work?

---- (I have) Not (finished my work) yet.

---- Yes, I am (thirsty).
----
He hasn’t finished the task yet.

（二）并列句中的省略

两个并列分句中，后一个分句常省略与前一分句中相同的部分。

e.g. My father is a doctor and my mother (is) a nurse.

I study at college and my sister (studies) at high school.
（三）主从复合句中的省略

hat you are ill.

或
tha t
）代替。
