若成立，则是强调句型；若不成立，则为状语从句、定语从句或主语从句。
2．反意疑问句：形式：句子+简短的疑问(1)前面若有多个句子并列，则以最后一个句子为准；若前面部分为主从复合句，一般说来，以主句为准；但若宾语主从复合句的主句谓语动词是think，believe，suppose，feel，imagine，consider，guess等，主语又是第一人称且为一般现在时、谓语又没有任何副词修饰时，简短疑问部分的动词、时态、人称则以从句为准，而肯、否定形式依主句而定。
(2)前面句子含有must，can’t，may等表推测的词时，疑问部分则依据句子的时态及时间状语而定。
(3)句子是Let’s．．．时，后面用shall／shan’t we；前面部分是Let us…祈使句时，后面用will／won’t you。
(4)前面句子是I’m…时，后面用aren’t l；句子是I’m not…时，后面用 am I。
(5)前面是感叹句时，后面跟感叹句的主、谓一致，但用否定形式。
(6)当主语是anyone／anybody／everyone／everybody时，疑问部分用复数形式。
否定、肯定形式：(1)一般说来，前后两部分的否定、肯定形式相反；但当句子前有0h，Ah，so等语气词时，前后两部分的否定、肯定形式相同。
(2)前面部分有否定词或半否定词时，后面部分用肯定形式；但若前面部分含有由否定词缀构成的否定词时，后面部分还是用否定形式。
3．祈使句：祈使句的主语是you，但一般被省略；当前面有呼语时，一般得补出主语you；否定式一般是在前面加Don’t。

2.the+比较级...,the+比较级...句型 The more you listen to English, the easier it becomes. 你听英语听得越多,它就变得越简单。 3.whatever+n.或however+adj./adv.引导的让步状语从句 Whatever reasons you have,you should carry out your promise.无论你有 什么理由,你都应当履行诺言。 However difficult the problem may be, we must work it out this evening. 不管这个问题多难,我们今天晚上必须把它解决。 4.as引导的让步状语从句中,一般把所强调的信息放在句首;though引导 的让步状语从句中也可以这begin to understand him. 就在那时,我才开始理解他。 Only in this way can we solve the problem. 只有用这种方法,我们才能解决这个问题。 Only after the war did he learn the sad news. 直到战争结束后,他才知道那个让人难过的消息。 5.so...that...和such...that...句式中,so或such及其所修饰的部分置于句首 时,主句用部分倒装。 So clearly does he speak English that he can always make himself understood. 他英语说得如此清楚,以至于别人都能听懂。
Such progress did he make that he won much respect. 他取得了如此大的进步,以至于赢得了很多尊敬。 四、形式倒装 形式上的倒装在语法上称为前置。它的特点是只把强调的内容提至句 首,主谓并不倒装。这样的结构非常多,但有几个重要的句型需要特别 注意: 1.感叹句 What an interesting talk they had! =How interesting a talk they had! 他们进行了一次多么有趣的谈话!
5年高考英语语法分类题精选
第一项：关于五证陷阱：有些开发商没有五证或五证不全时，为了出售房屋可能提供虚假的五证主要是复印件；或者提供小区一期或前几期的有效五证来出售房屋。
五证不全可能导致买受人不能取得房产证甚至导致购房合同无效。
对策：1、复印件要注意看原件。
2、有原件要看批准日期以及使用和出售面积的多少。
3、对于承诺证件正在办理中的开发商，可约定开发商在一定期限内不能取得该证件所要承担的责任。
律师建议增加补充条款：出卖人保证对出售房屋所持有五证的真实性、有效性。
若因此导致买受人退房的，出卖人愿向买受人承担已付房款双倍的返还责任。
第二项：关于公摊面积陷阱：建设部格式合同第五条只有对建筑面积出现变化的处理，这样有的开发商会提高公摊面积减小使用面积，而总的建筑面积不变。
依据合同开发商并未违约，买受人也起诉无据。
对策：1、在合同第三条中写明确套内建筑面积和公摊面积。
2、在第四项：关于书面通知陷阱：合同中约定通知义务后（如：交房通知），开发商如期不能履行义务，延期后其可以在售楼部张贴书面公告，却署名约定日。
还将公告辩为书面通知，以推托自己的责任。
对策：1、将书面通知的形式约定清楚，开发商违约时，买受人就有确凿证据。
2、如有开发商违约，买受人应一具体的书面形式通知对方，以备证据。
律师建议增加补充条款：本合同中所含书面通知义务的，双方均应以邮政快件的方式通知对方。
第五项：关于所售房屋的坐落位置陷阱：开发商开发多个楼盘时，买受人可能买得是位置好的某号楼，可交房时该楼号又变为相同结构位置不好的楼层。
对策：1、在合同附件一中，附上小区的平面图并标明楼号。
2、开发商应在此附图中盖章确认。
律师建议增加补充条款：出卖人应当将出售房屋所属楼号在小区平面图中标明，并将小区平面图粘贴在本合同附件一内加盖公章。
第六项：关于所售房屋的抵押陷阱：有的开发商为了盘活资金往往将土地使用权抵押，进而将所建楼盘抵押。
如果此类房屋出售，开发商破产时，买受人得不到房屋。
