【考点】强调句型的用法

【归纳】 强调句型的基本句式是“It is /was + 被强调部分 + that / who + 句子的其余部分”，它可以对句中除谓语动词以外的成分加以强调。强调句型的一般疑问句形式是：Is / was it + 被强调部分 + that / who + 句子的其余部分；强调句型的特殊疑问句形式是：疑问词（被强调部分） + is/was + it + that + 句子的其余部分。如果被强调部分指人时，引导词用who或that都可以；如果被强调的是物或其他情况，则一律用that；如果被强调部分为疑问代词who时，为了避免重复，引导词只能用that。在强调主语时，that / who后的谓语应与前面被强调的主语保持一致。在强调until引导的时间状语（从句）时，其句型为：It is/was not until… that…，注意此时not until不能分开。
