英語強(qiáng)調(diào)句的特殊疑問句形式
強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的陳述句形式和一般疑問句形式一般還好理解,但若以特殊疑問句形式出現(xiàn),則很容易誤解。比較:
Mary bought a new car. (非強(qiáng)調(diào)句)
It was Mary that bought a new car. (強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的陳述句形式)
Was it Mary that bought a new car? (強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的一般疑問句形式)
Who was it that bought a new car? (強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的特殊疑問句形式)
特殊疑問句形式的強(qiáng)調(diào)句可視為對(duì)陳述句強(qiáng)調(diào)中的被強(qiáng)調(diào)成分提問得來,如對(duì)It was in 1985 that he was born 這一句中的in 1985提問,即得到When was it that he was born?
