中的that之后再确认答案。例如:It is on the farm where we worked together that we got to know each other.
分析:第一个黑体字处考查定语从句的连接词where,修饰farm,在从句中作状语,考生会误以为此处填that;其实第二个黑体字处才是强调句型中的that。

It is (high/about) time (that)...与以上句型有相似之处,但从句中谓语动词的形式不同。 It is (high/about) time that 从句谓语用did或should do。例如: It's high time that we should make full use of every minute to learn English. →It's high time that we made full use of every minute to learn English. 语境助记

直接引语和间接引语(Ⅰ)
陈述句的间接引语
直接引语是陈述句,在变为间接引语时,多数情况下都构成一个由that 引导的宾语从句(口语中that可以省去),引述动词通常是say,tell等。与此同时,间接引语中的人称、时态和其他方面也要相应地有所变化。
She said to her son, “I'll check your homework tonight.”
→She said to her son that she would check his homework that night. 疑问句的间接引语 1.一般疑问句和反意疑问句
一般疑问句改为间接引语时,要用陈述语序,并要加连词if或whether,其主句动词常用ask, wonder, want to know, didn't know等。句末用句号。
My teacher asked me,“Do you like American country music?” →My teacher asked if/whether I liked American country music. 2.否定的一般疑问句和选择疑问句
如果直接引语为否定的一般疑问句或选择疑问句时,用whether...or连接。 She said,“Don't you know my telephone number?”
→She asked me whether I knew her telephone number or not.
