C1
The reason why + S + V + is that + S + V · The thing that + V + is + N
强调型分裂句——The reason why / The thing that
讲解
用一个概括性的名词短语开头(the reason, the thing, the problem, the point, the place, the person),把想强调的部分放到句末。方向与 B2 阶段的 What matters is ... 相反:这里强调的部分在 is 之后,引导部分在前面。 常见错误:the reason why 之后用 is that,不要用 is because:The reason why he left is because he was tired ✗, The reason why he left is that he was tired ✓。
