命题意图：考查强调句型转换为特殊疑问句，属于四星级题目。
知识依托：“It is/was +强调部分+that+其余部分”强调句型结构。
错解分析：很多同学没有搞清楚题意，看不懂。其实首先句子应是一个强调句，然后对句子进行提问。
解题方法与技巧：先把句子还原为肯定句：It was t hrough a friend of mine that I got in touch with Mr Smith。然后对划线部分提问，即是：How was it that you got in touch with Mr Smith？
答案：C
2.I don’t think Mary and Sue________before,________?
A.have met;haven’t they B.have seen;have I
C.have met;have they D.have seen;don’t they
命题意图：本题主要考查学生对反意疑问句的掌握，属于五星级题目。
知识依托：否定转移的句子对从句进行反问。
错解分析：A项迷惑性较大，因为不能明确从句其实为否定句。
解题方法与技巧：这是一个否定转移的句子，从句是否定句，故根据第二空，即可选出C。
答案：C
●锦囊妙计
历年高考题中，这一题型对反意疑问句考查较多，在此再论述做反意疑问句的方法策略。如果前一部分为肯定形式，后一部分通常用否定形式；特别要注意，这时英语回答和汉语回答是不一致的。如果陈述部分包含有“no, never, hardly, little, few, scarcely,seldom”等词，这部分就算否定。如果陈述部分的否定词仅带有否定前缀，那么，该陈述部分作肯定句处理，反意疑问部分用否定形式。
