2016年考研英语句型学习之强调句语法知识

强调句型是考研英语完型和翻译中经常涉及的一个考点，也是考研英语基础语法之一，因此，老师特为2016考研的考生整理强调句型相关知识点如下：

1.考查强调句型的基本结构，即“It is +被强调部分+that/ who+其他部分”（这个句型用来强调除谓语以外的部分）。

It was because he was too lazy that he failed in this examination.这次考试不及格是因为他太懒惰。

It is notIwho am to blame for the many troubles you have encountered.你遇到这么多麻烦，不是怨我。

2.考查强调句的疑问句形式，如强调句的一般疑问句形式“Is it +被强调部分+that +其他部分?”,以及特殊疑问句形式“疑问词+isit+that +其他部分?”

3.考查not…until…的强调形式“It isnot until…that…”。如：

It was not untilImeet you thatIknew real happiness.直到我遇到你以后，我才真正体会到幸福。

It was not until the rain stopped that they started.直到雨停他们才出发。

4.考查强调谓语动词用do, does, did。

This does lower the International profile of a country.这确实有损于国家的形象。

以下为历年真题中出现的强调句型题目节选，供大家自学使用。

【例1】As was discussed before, it was not ( 22 ) ______the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronicmedium, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in thecompanyof the periodical.(2002年完型真题)

22. [A] after [B] by [C] during [D]until

【答案】[D]

【解析】本题考查not until的强调句型：It is (was) not until…that…

【译文】正如前面所讨论的那样，直到19世纪，继小册子和书籍之后，报纸才与杂志一起成为电子时代之前的垄断性媒体。

【例2】Thus,in the American economic system it is the demand of individual consumers, coupled with the desire of businessmen to maximize profits and the desire of individuals to maximize their incomes that together determine what shall be produced and how resources are used to produce it.(1996年阅读第一篇)

【解析】此句的主干是it is…that together determine…强调句。coupled with和and连接三个并列成分：the demand of individual consumers, the desire of businessmen to maximize profits和the desire of individuals to maximize their incomes。 此外，需要注意determine后是what和how连接的并列的宾语从句，句末it指代的是前面的what shall be produced。

【译文】因此，在美国经济体制中，正是消费者个人的需求和商人获取最大利润的追求以及消费者渴望最大限度增加自己的收入这三面共同决定了应该生产什么产品，以及如何利用资源去生产这些产品。

希望大家通过此文掌握考研英语中强调句型所涉及的考点。祝君进步！
