Ⅲ. 语法精讲
10. 强调句型
公式:It is / was + 被强调部分+that/who+其他成分。
注意:
(1)其他成分中的谓语动词是现在时态用it is, 若是过去时态则用it was.
(2)被强调部分为句子的主语、宾语或状语。
(3)被强调部分为人,既可用who, 也可用that; 若为其他只能用that.
1. They plant trees on the hill every spring.
(1)强调主语:It is they that/who plant tress on the hill every spring.
-Who is it that plant trees on the hill every spring.
(2)强调宾语:It is trees that they plant on the hill every spring.
-What is it that they plant on the hill every spring.
(3)强调地点状语:It is on the hill that they plant trees every spring.
-Where is it that they plant trees every spring.
(4)强调时间状语:It is every spring that they plant trees on the hill.
-When is it that they plant trees on the hill.
2. 强调not……until句型时,应把not until……一起放在It is /was 之后
e. g. I didn’t realize I was wrong until then.
-It was not until then that I realized I was wrong.
3. 强调句型的反意疑问句应反问it, 遵循前肯后否,前否后肯的原则。
e. g. It is I who tell you a story, isn’t it
4. 强调句型与时间状语从句的区别,去掉it is/was……that 之后,把被强调部分还原到原来的位置看句意是否完整,如果完整则为强调句型,若不完整则为时间状语从句。
e. g. It was at 5 o’clock that he arrived home. (强调句)
It was 5 o’clock when he arrived home. (时间状语从句)
5. 若强调谓语动词,则用do, does, did+动词原形,译为“的确”,“千万”,“一定”等意思,只能用于陈述句和祈使句,只有一般现在时和过去时的谓语动词才可以强调。
e. g. Do be quiet! (一定要安静)
He does want to learn English well. (他的确想学好英语)
He said he would come and he did come. 他说他会来的,的确来了。

2. nearly与almost
(1)这两个词意思相近,肯定句中可以换用;一般来说,almost的差距比nearly 小,因此,在差一刻开午饭时,可以说:It’s nearly lunchtime. 快开午饭了。
在差5分钟的时候,可以说:It’s almost lunchtime. 马上要开午饭了。
(2)almost 能和never, no, none, nothing, nobody, nowhere too, more than等连用,这种情况下不用nearly。
e. g. almost never(=hardly ever)几乎从不
almost nobody 几乎无人
almost no money 几乎没钱
(3)nearly 可以和not 连用,not nearly 是“远不如”的意思,相当于nowhere near, 但almost不和not 单独连用。
e. g. not nearly enough money 远远不够的钱

e. g. He almost 或(He nearly) didn’t hear what I said.

课文背景阅读
MODERN FARM LIFE
People in America live in many different kinds of geographical areas. Their way of life in rural areas is different from their way of life in the city. In ancient times most people lived in rural areas. These people lived on farms and in small agricultural communities. As more and more people came to America and the population grew, the cities grew. Today the majority of people live in urban communities. However, some people still live on farms and in small rural agricultural communities.
Life on the modern farm in America has changed over the last fifty years. Electricity is the cause for many changes in life on the farm. Also, the fact that many jobs on the farm that were formerly done by hand are now done by modern machines. This introduction of mechanical equipment helps the modern farmer to farm greater areas and harvest larger crops than ever before.
Some jobs on the farm have changed little over the years. Much farm work still consists of raising crops in large fields. Some of the grains raised in the United States are wheat, corn, oats and beans. Cotton, tobacco, peanuts and other crops are also grown in vast fields.
Another important area of farm work is raising animals. Beef cattle, pigs, and chickens are raised all over the country. Herds of milk cows are found throughout rural America also.
Daily life on the farm starts early in the morning. Before dawn the farmer can be found milking cows and feeding the animals. After the morning chores are over and breakfast has been eaten, the farmer works in the fields. In the evening the milking and feeding must be done again before the farmer ends the day.
Farm life has changed greatly in modern times. The farmer has become a businessman, a machinist, and one who is knowledgeable in many different sciences. Yet farm life is still made up of the care of animals and the planting and harvesting of crops. The modern farmer must work hard and plan carefully to be sure that the animals are in good health, and that the product of the farm is maintained.

Malls are popular places for Americans to go. Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called mall rats. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.

How to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the U. S.
For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as hazards(危险)and with good guides, some education, and a few precautions(预防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated(浏览). “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t have access(机会)to the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future. ”said an expert.
Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a“content screener(过滤器)”. But this can’t be wholly reliable (可靠), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is Ok or not OK to see or do on the Internet, Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing(浏览)the Internet.
A few other tips:
-Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
-Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line.
-Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.
-And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.
5. The passage is mainly about the subject of __________ .
A. American children going on-line
B. Internet in America
C. appreciating Internet
D. opposing children’s on-line
6. The best way to protect children from improper material is __________ .
A. to install(安装)a content screener on the computer
B. to buy some search engines for the children
C. to be nearby when they are surfing the Internet
D. to talk to the children and persuade them to tell right from wrong
7. Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A. Surfing the Internet is the best method of educating children.
B. Children’s not having access to Internet may have effect on their progress.
C. Using a content screener is most reliable for keeping children having access to Internet.
D. Searching engines can help children to select materials fit for them.
8. According to the passage, we can infer that __________ .
A. softwares fit for children want programming
B. a child who is on-line is in danger
C. Internet is a jungle full of danger
D. Internet contains a lot of harmful sites

Students Like Optional Course
This term our school has offered more than 10 optional courses, from which students can choose. The courses are given from 3: 30 to 5: 00 every Tuesday afternoon.
Students take great interest in the optional courses. Their favorites are computer, spoken English, arts and so on. They say they have learned a lot that is not taught in textbooks and they have got a great deal of practice. However, students are not quite satisfied. They hope more optional courses will be offered while their homework should be less. They suggest more trips and visits should be organized so that they can learn more about what is going on outside school.
