【解析】本題考查考生對強(qiáng)調(diào)句型這一特殊結(jié)構(gòu)的運(yùn)用能力。做選擇時要注意兩點：用疑問語序；特殊疑問詞充當(dāng)say的賓語，必須使用代詞what。

強(qiáng)調(diào)句型是高中語法教學(xué)的一項重要內(nèi)容，也是教學(xué)中的一個難點。在這幾年的高考中，強(qiáng)調(diào)句型是一個?？柬椖?。它的陳述句型構(gòu)成是：It is (was) + 被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分(主語、賓語、賓語補(bǔ)足語或狀語) + that (who) +句子的其余部分，一般疑問句構(gòu)成是：Is/Was it+被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that/who+句子的其余部分? 特殊疑問句構(gòu)成是：特殊疑問詞 + is / was it + 被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分 + that / who + 句子的其余部分?

強(qiáng)調(diào)句型可以強(qiáng)調(diào)除謂語動詞以外的任何句子成份。一般說來，如果被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分是人時，可用連詞that或who；如果被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分是物時，只能用連詞that。例如：

What is it that Hawking does not like about his speech computer? 霍金對他的語音電腦不滿意的地方是什么呢？(強(qiáng)調(diào)疑問詞，用特殊疑問句型)

It was playing computer games that cost the boy a lot of time he ought to have spent on his lessons. 玩電腦游戲用掉了這個孩子本來應(yīng)該花在功課上的時間。(強(qiáng)調(diào)主語，that / who后面的謂語動詞必須和主語在人稱和數(shù)上保持一致)

It was not until he entered the classroom that he realized that he had forgotten to do the homework. 直到走進(jìn)教室，他才意識到忘了做作業(yè)。（當(dāng)被強(qiáng)調(diào)的是not...until句型時，應(yīng)將not置于until之前，主句由否定句改為肯定句）

We were told that it was in that very room that the Republicans held the important meeting.

It is during his spare time that Tom has been studying the situation for several months. （強(qiáng)調(diào)時間、地點、原因狀語時，通常只使用that，而不能使用when，where，why）

It was I who was to blame. 該受責(zé)備的人是我。（強(qiáng)調(diào)主語或賓語且其為人稱代詞時，應(yīng)注意其形式仍用主格或賓格形式）

注意：如果被強(qiáng)調(diào)的是謂語動詞，則不用上述句型，而是在動詞之前加do，或did，或does。例如：

She does get up very early every morning.她確實每天起得很早。
