Cleft sentences are devices in English that can help putting the focus on a particular part of a sentence and emphasize it by a variety of ways.

Hence, verifying the research hypotheses and extracting some concluding remarks related to the problem in question are drawn by depending on the answers of the test in a statistical method then discussing them and finding weak and strong points
