Question

2．正因為是他被任命為經理，該公司在過去的十年中迅速發展為廣告業巨頭．（It）It was because he was appointed as manager that the company has developed into a giant in the advertising business．．

Answer 1

分析 It was because he was appointed as manager that the company has developed into a giant in the advertising business．

解答 It was because he was appointed as manager that the company has developed into a giant in the advertising business．
本句描述的是他擔任公司經理一職后的結果以及根據句意"在過去的十年中"，可知用一般過去時．
結合句意"正因為是他被任命為經理"，可知需要運用強調句型．被強調部分為一原因狀語從句．
be appointed as被任命為…；a giant 巨人，巨頭．

點評 注意強調句型中的被強調部分可以是除謂語以外的其他成分，如主語、賓語、狀語（從句）等，如：
It was at the railway station that I met Li Ming yesterday．
