It was not until __ that __ to prepare his lessons.
a.did his father come in ;the boy began
b.his fanther came in;the boy began
c.did his father come in ;did the boy begin
d.his father came in ;did the boy begin
答案是b
为什么?
请详细说明

首先这是一个It be that引导的强调句,然后又涉及到not until句型及其倒装。正确语序是:The boy didn't begin to prepare his lessons until his father came in.not until 倒装句中,主句倒装,从句不变。

这是not until的强调句。只有not until放句首时,才倒装。
