=Sally said she would call you if you were not in.
5. It is not enough to just study hard.
It’s+ adj. +to do sth. 意为“做某事是……(怎么样的)”。句中it作形式主语,真正的主语是句中的动词不定式“to just study hard”。在这个句型中,句首的it作形式主语, 真正的主语是句中的动词不定式to do sth. 。
【妙辨异同】
It’s + adj. +for sb. +to do sth.
句中形容词描述活动特征, 如difficult, easy, hard, important等
It’s + adj. +of sb. +to do sth.
句中形容词描述不定式逻辑主语的性格、品质, 如kind, good, nice, clever, polite等
