Yes, this type of sentence is called 'cleft sentences' - a kind of emphasis. This structure can be used to emphasize almost any part of a sentence.

For example, if we want to give importance to one part of this sentence: Expector enjoyed reading Tara's weekly news. We can use the structure 'It is/was...that(who)...':

--It was Expector who enjoyed reading Tara's weekly news.

--It was Tara's weekly news that Expector enjoyed reading.

Let's try to write a blog post to practice the structure - it can be

She smiled,

She put the orchid moon to the place it used to...

She was stroking the gravestone with incomparable softness and matchless tenderness,

and I was looking  at love from where I stood....

This morning is the umpteenth time I enjoy an amazing scenery, witnessing the love that is not separated by distance and time, the stretch off in determining a size, like watching a scene in the romantic drama.

This time, She came as usual in the same time and the same flower on her hand, 

She is not young

I was sad as put out light.
Light but not bright.
Nobody got my gloom
I want flight from this hollow room
Who is zooming in and zooming out
All doubt about doubt and doubt

Some members of EC are not present on holiday to enjoy the reality. On the contrary, some others are present on their days off. Several members also come and go but no one can predict their reasons. Many members are almost online everyday and every time like you and me. Then, are you and I the most addicted members to this English Club platform?? :D

We are living in a world of uncertainty and misconceptions. Man is beginning to question the very roots of his beliefs regarding Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallam, to create doubt in the minds of the simple and unsuspecting Muslims. A brother in Islam provided me a link where some lunatics were trying to accuse the magnificent personality of Syeduna Rasoolullah Sallallaho Alaihi wa Sallam having a shadow like any other human!!

Good day englishclub folks, 

I heard somewhere, or saw somewhere, about one english practice exercise. 

"Compose sentence or text using words, which exlude one letter "(any letter from alphabet).

For example, letter "S" - "I am very happy today. I woke up and realized that I have won 1 million dollar lottery", but of course, such letters like "S, X, Q, Z..." are very easy, so you can take any harder one.

Letter "E" - "I am happy today, after I got up I saw on TV that I won 1 million dollar on bingo 

The burning question is, "What do you think is the best section on EC that has made your English learning improved? Why?"

Like some of you may had known or gauged that I'm an old member of EC. I stumbled upon EC when I was in South Korea for three months way back in 2006. I became like the prodigal daughter of EC somewhat when I left it for a few times but always came back like a bad penny. If I had to answer this question during my previous life in EC, the answer would be different.

One day the engine of a propeller plane which was flown by a famous test pilot stopped during a flight. He managed to land on the ground and searched for the cause. Then he knew that a mechanic had poured incorrect fuel into the propeller plane.

When he knew this fact, rather than getting angry at the mechanic and booting him out, he only said "I am sure you will not repeat this mistake again. I am asking you to overhaul my plane tomorrow." He didn't just blame the mechanic but also he was succe
