obvious adj.
1) It + be + obvious +that-clause

明显的, 清楚的
辨析:
obvious/apparent/clear
① obvious 是三者中程度最强的,含有“一目了然” 之意。
It is obvious that you are wrong.
② apparent 指具有某些明显的迹象的,侧重与经历推理才能看出结果。
It was apparent from his face that he was lying.
③clear 作“明白的,清楚的”讲。指不模糊含混,易于观察,了解和识别。
He seems clear about his plans.
5. When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her granddaughter was married to a human, she ...
marry 的用法:
1) 她嫁给了一个律师。
She married with a lawyer.
She married a doctor.
表示“和......结婚”,“嫁......” “娶......”时,marry为及物动词,要用marry sb.,而不用marry with sb.
√
×
2) 她和一位律师结婚了。
She got married with a lawyer.
She got married a lawyer.
She was married to a lawyer.
表示婚姻状态, 后接宾语时要用介词to, 而不用with.
×
×
√
注意:marry和get married都表示短暂行为,不能和表示一段时间的短语连用,而have been married则表示婚姻状态,可以与表示婚姻状态持续多久的时间状语连用。
3) 他们结婚三年了。
They have married for three years.
They have got married for three years.

6. People in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinü is weeping and the couple won’t be able to meet.
[点拨] 此句是一个主从复合句。主句为People in China ... on that day; 从句为because引导的原因状语从句。
另外, 在主句中包含着由that引导的宾语从句, 作hope的宾语; 在because引导的原因状语从句中又包含着一个主从复合句: 该主从复合句的主句为it means that ... to meet;从句为if引导的条件状语从句。
7. As Li Fang set off for home, he thought...
