強調句與定語從句

有這樣一道題：

It was in the small house ______ was built with stones by his father ______ he spent his childhood.

A. which, that B. that, which

C. which, which D. that, where

【陷阱】幾個乾擾項均有可能誤選，主要是分不清爲強調句型，或即使分清爲強調句型，也分不清強調哪一個成分。

【分析】答案選A，第一空填 which，用以引導定語從句；第二空填that，爲強調句的結搆詞，被強調部分爲 in the small house (以及脩飾它的定語從句 which was built with stones by his father)。此題難就難在強調句型中套用了定語從句。請再看類似例子：

(1) It was the boy _____ had been in prison _____ stole the money.

A. who, where B. that, how

C. who, that D. that, which

此題答案選C，全句爲強調句，被強調成分是 the boy (以及脩飾它的定語從句who had been in prison)。

(2) It was just in the room _____ he was born _____ he died.

A. where, which B. that, that

C. where, that D. which, that

此題答案選C，全句爲強調句，被強調成分是 in this room，where he was born 爲脩飾 the room 的定語從句。
