(2) It was a room where we used to have meetings. 

它是我们过去常在开会的房子。(where 所引导的从句对前面的room进行说明，它是定语从句)

It was in the room that we used to have meetings. 

过去我们开会就在这间房子里。(in the room是被强调的部分，本句是强调句型) 

(3) It is a day when the people celebrate their victory. 

这是人们庆祝他们的胜利的日子。  (when所引导的从句对a day进行说明，是定语从句) 

It was on that day that people celebrated their victory. 

就在那一天，人们庆祝了他们的胜利。(强调on October 1, 1949) 

3．强调句与状语从句的比较

◎状语从句句首的It本身就是句子的主语；而强调句首的It不作任何成分也没有实际意义。

◎状语从句的连接副词that及句子前面的It be不能去掉(from )。

◎状语从句的引导词可以是when / where，而强调句型中的that不能用其他词代替。如：

(1) It is such an interesting book that we all like it very much. 

它是一本如此有趣的书，我们大家都非常喜欢。(结果状语主从复合句) 

It is such an interesting book that we all like very much. 

我们大家都非常喜欢的就是一本如此有趣的书。(强调such an interesting book) 

(比较：It is such an interesting book as we all like very much. 这就是我们大家都非常喜欢的如此有趣的书。定语从句)

(2) It was already morning when he woke up. 

当他醒来时，已经是早晨了。(时间主从复合句)

It was the next morning that he woke up. 

就在第二天早晨他醒来了。(强调the next morning)
