| 在英文中,句子的主语、宾语、状语都可以写进一定的句式里以表示对它的强调。 它们是:
 1. It is / was + 被强调的部分 + that ( who, which ) + 句子的其他部分,
 2. What … is / was …这种句式就称为强调句。
 3. It is/was + 被强调的部分 + that(which) + 句子的其他部分
 下面我们以句子为例来演示强调句的构成。如:
 1)Western health-care system are spending
 主语
 huge sums of money on the surgical treatment
 宾语 状语
 of the disease.
 西方国家医疗保健机构在心脏病的手术治疗上开支巨大。
 强调主语
 It is Western health-care system that are spending huge sums of money on
 the surgical treatment of the disease.
 正是西方国家医疗保健机构,在心脏病的手术治疗上开支巨大。
 强调宾语
 It is huge sums of money that Western health-care system are spending on
 the surgical treatment of the disease.
 西方国家医疗保健机构在心脏病的手术治疗上,开支确实是巨大的。
 强调状语
 It is on the surgical treatment of the disease that Western health-care
 system are spending huge sums of money .
 西方国家医疗保健机构,就是在心脏病的手术治疗上付出了巨大的开支。
 2)谓语动词的强调
 do / does / did +动词原形强调。
 例如:
 我的确相信他是老实人。
 I do believe that he is an honest man.
 她确实喜欢文学。
 She does like literature.
 他们昨天的确去看过你,但没见到你。
 They did go to see you yesterday, but failed to meet you.
 3)What … is / was …
 “What … is / was
 …”是名词从句结构,也是强调句的另一种构成形式。它常用来强调主语、宾语。如果所叙述的是现在或者将来发生的事情用”What is …
 that…”的句式;如果所叙述的是过去发生的事情用”What was … that…”的句式。
 例如:
 What he wishes most is to become a pilot.(强调宾语)
 他最希望的是成为一名飞行员。
 What interested me most in that movie was the beautiful scenery of Alps.
 (强调主语)
 那部电影使我最感兴趣的是阿尔裨斯山那美丽的风景。
 我喜欢的是她说话的风度。 (强调宾语)
 What I like is her speaking manner.
 给予我们鼓励的是他为我们树立的榜样。(强调主语)
