Trystan Bean · Answer 1

One of the following sentences that uses syntax for emphasis would include: It is easier to do a job right than to explain why you didn't. - Martin Van Buren.

Syntax refers to the words order and the structure of a sentence, so the "to do a job right" and the "than to explain why you didn't" part emphasizes to the reader the "to do a job right" part.
