(The idiom [Not A until B] means "You can't do A until you do B," or in other words, "You can only do A after you do B." It's often used to emphasize that something happens only after a certain point in time or condition is met.)

By using the "It is ~ that" emphasis structure, the "not, until B" is emphasized, becoming "It is not until B that A." 2. It can also be transformed into a special structure that inverts the negative phrase. ¡æ This structure is frequently tested on the TOEIC exam, so please master it and make it your own.)
