【答案與解析】

1. 選A。為強調句型 It is the children who are making so much noise 之省略。

2. 選C。為強調句型，被強調成分為主語從句 that he often fails in exams。

3. 選B。為強調句型，句意為“真正重要的在于保護樹，而不在于種多少樹”。

4. 選A，整個句子為 it was … that … 格式的強調句式，即第二空要填that;第一空填where，where my father worked 為地點狀語從句，為強調句的被強調部分。句意為“我現在我父親曾經工作過的地方工作”。

5. 選A，為強調句的一般疑問句形式，其相應陳述句為 It was you that I saw …。

6. 選A。when 表示“當……的時候”，句首的 it 表示時間，全句意為“當他回到家時，時間是10點鐘。”

7. 選C。為 He didn’t know the police were looking for him until he came back 之強調形式。注意，not … until … 的強調句式通常為 It was not until … that … 的形式。
