字体:16+-

一、强调句

强调句是一种修辞,下面简单归纳它的几种结构:

1.用助动词“do(does/did)+动词原形”来表示强调:

Do write to me when you get there.到那儿时一定要给我写信。

2.用形容词very,only,single,such等修饰名词或形容词来加强语气:

You are the only person here who can speak Chinese.你是这里唯一一个会说汉语的人。

How dare you buy such expensive jewels?你怎么敢买这么贵重的珠宝?

3.用ever,never,very,just等副词和badly,highly,really等带有-ly 的副词来进行强调:

Why ever did you do so?你究竟为什么要这么做?

He never said a word the whole day.一整天,他一句话也没说。

4.用in the world,on earth,at all等介词短语可以表达更强的语气(常用于疑问句):

Where in the world could he be?他到底会在哪儿?

Do you know at all?你到底知不知道?

5.用感叹句来表示强烈的感情:

How interesting a story it is!这是一个多么有趣的故事啊!

6.用重复来表示强调:

They walked for miles and miles.他们走了好多英里。

7.用倒装句来加强语气:

On the table were some flowers.桌上摆着一些花。(强调地点)

Only in this way,can we solve this problem.

只有这样,我们才能解决这个问题。

8.用强调句型:

“It is(was)+被强调的部分+that(who)+原句其他部分”来强调说话人的意愿:此结构强调的成分仅限于主语、宾语和状语。如:

Mary met an old beggar in the street yesterday.

玛丽昨天在街上碰到一个老乞丐。

It was Mary who/that met an old beggar in the street yesterday.(强调主语)

It was an old beggar whom/that Mary met in the street yesterday.(强调宾语)

It was yesterday that Mary met an old beggar in the street.(强调地点状语)
