专题 10 特殊句式
I.单项填空
1.(2020·黑龙江实验中学高三月考)______ when we passed by its nest.
A.Up into the blue sky did the bird fly
B.Up into the blue sky flew the bird
C.Up into the blue sky the bird flew
D.Flew up into the blue sky the bird
【答案】B
【解析】考查倒装句。句意:当我们经过鸟巢时,鸟飞入了蓝天。如果是“介词+宾语+be/不及物动词+主语
(名词)”,则必须用倒装句,采取全部倒装;如果没有上述特点,则不需要用倒装句。故选 B。
2.(2020·江苏高三二模)— Were all the villagers inspected for the suspected disease?
— No. ________ only 10 people who were exposed to the animals infected by the virus.
A.There were B.There are C.It were D.It was
【答案】D
【解析】考查强调句的用法。句意:-- 所有村民都检查过疑似疾病了吗?--不,只有 10 个人接触过被病毒感
染的动物。分析句子结构可知,本句为强调句型的省略形式。强调句的句式结构为:It was /is + 被强调部分+
that/who+ 其他。当被强调部分是人时,用 who; 被强调部分为其他内容时,用 that。结合上句的提问内容,
本句的回答应该是 It was only 10 people who were exposed to the animals infected by the virus that/who were
inspected for the suspected disease.本句中,强调句结构中that/who were inspected for the suspected disease 省略
了。who were exposed to the animals infected by virus 为定语从句,修饰先行词 people。
3.(2020·江苏高三二模)Some institutions have established reading clubs to promote reading, but the effort,
though ________, is far from enough.
A.appreciated B.appreciating C.having appreciated D.to appreciate
【答案】A
【解析】考查状语从句的省略。句意:一些机构已经建立了阅读俱乐部来促进阅读,但这种努力虽然受到
赞赏,但还远远不够。这句话是由 though 引导的让步状语从句,努力和赞赏的关系是被动关系,所以这句
状语从句的完整形式是 though the effort is appreciated。在状语从句中,如果从句的主语和主句主语一致,且
有 be 动词时,则省略主语和 be 动词,那么这句话就变成 though appreciated。故此题选 A。
4.(2020·高三月考)It’s not doing the things we like, but liking the things we have to do______ 2
makes life happy.
A.that B.which
C.what D.who
【答案】A

此处是强调句型,强调句子的主语部分 not doing the things we like, but liking the things we have to do,强调句
型的构成形式是:It is/was+被强调成分+that+其他成分。故选 B。
5.(2020·高三月考) to the association of success with money that the thought
of giving up good salary for an idea seems like a little bit crazy.
A.Accustomed as are most of us B.Accustomed as most of us are
C.So accustomed are most of us D.So accustomed most of us are
【答案】C

法好像有点疯狂。本句运用了 so…that,表示“如此……以至于”,在 so…that 结构中,当 so 位于句首时,主
句要用倒装语序。故选 C。

转了,我才开始训练的。分析句子可知,问句表示的意思是“从你重新练习羽毛球到现在有多久了?”可知答
案是 since;答语中被强调部分是时间状语 not until my finance became better in last December,是 it is/was not
until…that 的强调句。故应用 that。故选 C。
7.(2020·江苏省高三三模)The Internet is one of the ways these feelings are conveyed and

因此选 B。

A. It were B. Were it C. It was D. Was it
【答案】B
【解析】考查虚拟语气和倒装。虚拟语气中,be 动词统一用 were;虚拟语气的省略形式主要是把 if 省

【答案】B
【解析】副词 only 置于句首, 强调方式状语、 条件状语、 地点状语、 时间状语等状语时, 主句要进行
部分倒装。如果被 only 所强调的状语为状语从句, 该状语从句不倒装, 只对主句进行倒装。此题中 only
作为副词放在句首修饰时间状语 after talking to two student,所以主句要进行部分倒装。部分倒装是指将谓
语的一部分如助动词或情态倒装至主语之前。如果句中的谓语没有助动词或情态动词,则需添加助动词 do,
does 或 did,并将其置于主语之前。句意:在和两个学生交谈之后我才意识到拥有强烈的动机是达到目标的
最大因素。故选 B

【答案】B
【解析】根据分析:此句是 It was…开头且去掉 It was,when we were returning home I realized what a good
feeling it was to have helped someone in trouble.是一个完整意义上的句子,故判断此句是一个强调句,强调
when we were returning home;强调句常用句型:It is (was) +被强调部分+that(who)… 。句意:正是在我回家
的时候我才意识到帮助别人于危难之时感觉是多么令人愉悦。故选 B
20.【2015·重庆】9.Bach died in 1750, but it was not until the early 19th century____ his musical gift was fully
recognized.
A. while B. though C. that D. after
【答案】C
【解析】句意:马赫死于 1750 年,但直到 19 世纪他的音乐天赋才被承认。强调句与 not until 连用。It be not
until that … 故选 C 项。not until 引起的时间状语置于句首时,句子的主谓应部分倒装。由 not until 引导的
时间状语从句位于句首时,主句应部分倒装,从句语序不变。如:
Not until 1998 did he return to his hometown. 6
直到 1998 年他才回到家乡注意:当 not until 引导的状语或状语从句用于强调句型时,句子的主语不倒
装。如将上两句改为强调句应为:
It was not until 1998 that he returned to his hometown.

引导的状语从句,从句的主语和主句的主语 Children 一致,可用代词 they 代替,且由 by their parents 可知

by their parents。故填 accompanied。
