很多英语学习者会认为，既然强调句是为了突出重要信息，那么自然也能强调“表语”。这个想法看似合理，但实际上是一个常见的误区。英语强调句的固定结构“It is/was……that……”有其严格的语法限制，它只能强调主语、宾语和状语，而恰恰不能强调表语。正因为这一限制常被忽视，今天我们有必要专门来谈谈强调句的正确用法。[微风][烟花]后面有思考题，建议认真完成。

一，什么是表语

系动词后面(除了被动语态和进行时态)都是表语。这些表语一般是名词，形容词，副词，代词，介词短语，不定式，动名词和从句等。

1.Kunming is extremely beautiful.

2.He is a good student.

3.They are there.

4.It's me.

5.My brother is at home.

6.My dream is to become a police officer.

7.My hobby is collecting stamps.

8.The old lady looks very young.

9.The reason why he didn't come to school is that he was ill.

10.It is ten o'clock now.

二，强调句只能强调主语，表语和状语

强调句的结构

It is(was) +被强调部分+that……

[微风][烟花]分别强调句子的主语，宾语和状语

My sister lost her book on the playground.

1.It was my sister that lost her book on the playground. 强调主语

2.It was her book that my sister lost on the playground. 强调宾语

3.It was on the playground that my sister lost her book. 强调地点状语

三，下面的句子为什么是错的？

It was eleven o'clock that we arrived home last night.

1.因为eleven o'clock是表语，所以，不是强调句，当然引导词就错了，应该用when，是个时间状语从句。

It was eleven o'clock when we arrived home last night.[微风][烟花]

我们昨天晚上回来的时候已经11点钟了。

2.加介词，构成介词短语at eleven o'clock，原句就有了时间状语。

We arrived home at eleven o'clock last night.

强调时间状语

It was at eleven o'clock that we arrived home last night.[微风][烟花]

我们昨天是晚上11点钟回来的。

通过上面的分析，相信大家已经知道了句子的表语和状语的区别。强调句不能强调表语的。

四，思考题[微风][烟花]有错必改。

1.It was October 2nd that we went to Beijing.

2.It's been two years since we met in 2023.

3.It was because of his carelessness that caused the accident.
