22、点： 独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句子的主语不同，它独立存在。 独立主格结构一般有逗号与主句分开。 独立主格结构的句法功能：定语或状语。如： Weather permitting, we are going to visit you tomorrow. He stood there, his hand raised. Close to the bank I saw deep pools，the water blue like the sky. The lights off, we could not go on the work. Our English teacher came into the

25、结构，被强调的是主语 the women。 强调句的基本结构：It is was +被强调部分+ that who+其余部分。被强调 的可以是主语、宾语和状语等，如果被强调的是人用 that 或 who; 其它用 that。 如： It is I who teach you English. I was he that broke the window yesterday. It was what he said just now that made me unhappy. 强调句型是高考常考的考点之一。如： (2006 山东)I just wonder _ that makes him so
26、 excited. A. why it does B. what he does C. how it is D. what it is (Key: D) (2005 天津)It is what you do rather than what you say _ matters.
