(完整版)高中英语强调句型专题讲解

强调句 一、强调句的基本结构及用法 强调句常用来突出说话人要强调的语言信息,给对方以强烈的印象和感受。译成汉语 时,常加上“正是”等字眼。其基本结构是:It + be的适当形式+ 被强调成分+ that (who) + 其他成分He bought the book in this shop yesterday. →It was he that bought the book in this shop yesterday. (强调主语he) →It was the book that he bought in this shop yesterday. (强调宾语the book) →It was in this shop that he bought the book yesterday. (强调地点状语in this shop) 【注意】 1.在该强调结构中,It无任何意义但不可以换成this或者that等。 It is (was)…that (who)…为结构词,假如去掉,剩下部分在语法结构和句子含义上均完整,这一点正是它和定语从句等的本质区别。 2.关于that与who 当被强调部分指人时,可以用who(被强调部分的人作主语或宾语时)或者whom(被强调部分的人作宾语时)代替that; 当被强调部分指物时通常用that;当被强调部分既包括人又包括物,用that不用who. It was the things and people that they remembered that they were talking abo ut. 当被强调部分是代词时,用who不用that。 当强调时间或地点或原因状语时,不能用when / where /why代替that(尤其是当这些状语为介词短语时)。1)It was only when I reread his poems recently I began to appreciate their beauty. A. until B. that C. when D. so 2)It was in Qingdao I saw the sea for the first time. A. what B. that C. when D. which 3)It was because of bad weather the football match had to be put off. A. so B. so that C. why D. that 如果被强调的成分有同位语,同位语也应提前。 It was from him, his chemistry teacher, that Paul learned to watch carefully in class. 3.关于be的适当形式: 在强调结构中,无论被强调的是人还是物,单数还是复数,be动词一律用单数is/was形式。 ①如果原句的谓语动词时态是现在范畴(一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时、现在完成进行时、一 般将来时、将来进行时、将来完成时等),就用is。 It is the ability to do the job matters not where you come from or what you are. A. one B. that C. what D. it ②如果原句的谓语动词时态是过去范畴(一般过去时、过去进行时、过去完成时、过去将来时等),就用was。例如: It was between 1989 and 1999 great changes took place in our hometown. A. when B. that C. which D. because ③也可以根据需要用It may/might/must be that/who; It must have been that/who 如: It might be Sally that you are thinking of. It might be in the morning that he broke into the house. It might be his father that you are looking for. It must be John that/who will take part in the contest on behalf our class.

(英语) 高中英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)含解析

(英语)高中英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)含解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Robots make me nervous—especially the ones which seem to think for themselves. I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, felt the same way. Gates said in an interview with the social networking and news website Reddit: "I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well. A few decades after that, though, the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern." Well, maybe I don't have to worry about my computer and kitchen equipment yet. After I use them I can always pull the plug. But in the future, machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off. There's a terrible thought! Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil like some we've seen in sci-fi movies. What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient. That's what philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University believes. He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just additional damage. Bostrom gives us an example: A machine which might have its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you. Because it is, well, a machine, it would not take pity on you. It's a good thing that American writer Isaac Asimov thought about how far robots can go and left us his three rules of robotics. They state that a robot may not hurt a human being or allow the human being to come to harm. I'm glad my machines at home are "dumb". All my cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room. Let's hope they don't create an appliance which wants to take over the world!(1)The author quoted Bill Gates' words in Paragraph 2 in order to make the text________. A. better-known B. more persuasive C. better-organized D. more interesting (2)An intelligent paperclip machine would harm us because _______. A. it is much cleverer than us B. it would take over the world C. it has the strong feeling of destroying us D. it would see us just as material (3)How does the author feel about Isaac Asimov's rules of robotics? A. Optimistic B. Worried C. Disappointed D. Regretful (4)What does the text mainly focus on? A. The benefits of future robots. B. The new applications of robots. C.
