课件66张PPT。GrammarMary:
I have got three tickets for Harry Potter. Here are two tickets for you, John and Rose.
John:
Thank you. I am glad to have got a ticket for it. It is an interesting film. I want to see it again.Emphasis Situation:Rose:
It is such an interesting film. I really want to see it again. I am so glad to have got a ticket for it. Thank you Mary.Compare what John said with what Rose said, and tell why Rose use such; really; so.
The adjective such is used to emphasize an interesting film, While the adverbs really and so are respectively used to emphasize the verb want and the adjective glad. CompareRose used them to express her strong feeling about the film ---how anxious she wanted to see Harry Potter again.
These sentence structure are called emphasis.Look at the following and see how they are emphasized. Everyone was so excited about her speech.

I really want to see it again.

If we want to emphasize a part of a sentence other than the verb, we can use the pattern ‘it +be +the part to be emphasized +that clause’. Robert Redford took over the festival in 1981.
Subject: It was Robert Redford that /
who took over the festival in
1981.We can use this pattern to emphasize the subject, object or adverbial. Look at the example below and see how each part is emphasized:Object: It was the festival that Robert
Redford took over in 1981.
Adverbial: It was in 1981 that Robert
Redford took over the
festival.去年是我代表了多伦多国际电影节。

International Film Festival last year.

该题中“they made a date for the first time”为被强调部分“Beihai Park”的定语2. 强调句型与宾语从句合用,强调句型用于宾语从句,为一大热门考点。
例如:
She looks sad. Could you please tell me ________ that prevents her from being as happy as before?
A. what it is B. it is what
C. how it is D. it is how该题中tell后面的宾语从句为强调句型,若将“it is...that...”去掉, 宾语从句中剩下的部分为 ________ prevents her from being as happy as before,该结构中缺少主语,应用“what“。强调句小结 英语中为了需要有时会强调句子中的某一成分,这时,就要用到一些强调句型。英语中常见强调句型有:
1. 用助动词do强调谓语。
用助动词do放在一般现在时或一般过去时的句子中动词原形前,以强调谓语。如:He did tell us what had happened to him. 2. 用倒装句来强调以加强语气。如:Never have I seen such a wonderful film. / So hard did he study that he could easily pass the examination.
3. 用what来加强语气。如:What he needs is money. / Learning and knowledge are important to us, but what is more important is a noble character. 4. 用in the world, on earth, at all等介词短语来表示强调。如:What in the world are you doing in my car? / How on earth did she manage it?
5. 用形容词very, only, single等修饰名词来表示强调。如:You are the only person who can help us. / Not a single mistake did he make in the exam. 6. 用It is / was ... that来强调主语、宾语、状语等。
用It is / was +被强调部分+ that +句子的其他成分(如指人,that也可以用who, whom)。如:I met him in the street this morning. →
It was I who met him in the street this morning. (强调主语) It was him that I met in the street this morning. (强调宾语)
It was in the street that I met him this morning. (强调地点状语)
It was this morning that I met him in the street. (强调时间状语) Read Julia’s diary entry and underline all the emphases she used.I am so tired! I have just got home from the cinema and finished the laundry. Mum told me to help her with it because she is not a maid! Before she is not a maid! Before I fall asleep, I have to write down what happened today. Mary and I had an appointment to meet at the shopping centre at 1 p.m., but it wasn’t until 2.30 p.m. that she arrived! I didn’t have time to get angry with her because we had to run to the cinema in time for the next show. Mary agreed to see the film I picked because she felt sorry for being late, but she really wanted to see a musical. The film was such a disappointment! Listening to the formal language all the characters used was really tiresome! Mary had to say to me, ‘Do think twice next time before you choose a film!’ I’m not unhappy about what she said. It is the time wasted on the film that I’m unhappy about. Mary and I made an agreement never to see such a film again. Maybe next time we can see a musical!B. Read what Julia is telling Mary.
