Question

It was the first time in a year and a half_I had seen the night face to face.

A:which B:when C:this D:that 答案选D为什么

Answer 1

It
was
the
first
time
in
a
year
and
a
half
that
I
had
seen
the
night
face
to
face.
it
is
...that
...是强调句的结构.
若是强调句,它这里是对时间状语的强调.我们把句子还原看看:
I
had
seen
the
night
face
to
face
the
first
time
in
a
year
and
a
half.>>(或者进一步转化)
I
had
seen
the
night
face
to
face
in
a
year
and
a
half
the
first
time.
但是我们发现句子少了一个时间状语的介词(the
first
time前面的)加上一个介词应该是for:
I
had
seen
the
night
face
to
face
for
the
first
time
in
a
year
and
a
half.
因此这个句子不是个强调句子.
而是个表语从句,它的主杆是:It
was
the
first
time
that
I
had
seen
the
night
face
to
face.
这里最大的疑惑可能就是下面的区别了.
the
first
time
和
for
the
first
time的区别在于:
the
first
time可作表语和主语
,for
the
first
time在句中只能作状语.
