作形式主语
作形式宾语
并能在所给题干提示的语境和逻辑关系中灵活运用.基本概念和用法 It 是一个特殊的代词，它有两重意义。一是作为代词，另一个是当作连接词(引导词)。
它可以用来代替事物和前面提到过的事,也可以用来表示时间,天气等.还可以用作先行代词及引导次.
具体用法
作代词:
1. 指代事物或前面提到过的事物:What is this ?
It is a picture.It is a lovely and cute panda, isn’t it?
Yeah. I won’t forget it!2. 指代时间和天气How is the weather?
It is rainy.What's the time?
It is twenty past two.3. 指代距离How far is it from your home to your school?It is only five minutes’ walk.4. 表示情况或代替this, that:How is it going on with the girl?
It must go on with her very well.
She is very happy.What’s this ? It is a cute dog. P55 A Answer these questions using it as the subject.
What’s the weather like today?
What’s the time now?
What is the date today?
What is the season now?
How far is your home from school? P56 B Put the words in the correct order to make meaningful sentences.
now/ for supper/ it/ time / is
autumn/ in Australia/ now/ it/ is
about five kilometres/ it/ is/ to the park
windy/ was/ it/ yesterday
It is time for supper now.It is autumn in Australia now.It is about five kilometres to the park.It was windy yesterday.it作形式主语。英语中不定式、动名词、主语从句在作主语时主语往往显得很长，使整个句子看上去有点 头重脚轻，这样就借助“it”来作形式上的主语，而把真正的主语移到句子后边去，使全句看上去平稳一些。 “it”没有实际的意义。
It + be+ adj. // n. +to do
It is easy to climb the hill.
It is his duty to solve the problem.2) It + be + no use / good + gerund (动名词)
做某事是没用的。
It is no using arguing with him.
做某事是没好处的。
I t is no good going there. 2.作形式宾语。这种情况通常只用于能带以名词或形容词作宾语补语的动词后面。常用于下列句型:
feel; think; make; find…+it adj. // n. +to do …
E.g. I found it not easy to get on with Jim.
We all think it important to learn English well.
It 句型:
1.It + is/was/ has been +一段时间 + since+过去时
自从我上次见到他已经有两年了。
It is two years since I last saw him.
我离开学校五年了。
It has been three years since I left the school.It 句型:
2. It takes/took sb some time to do sth 花费某人多少时间做某事
他们花了3年时间盖这栋大楼。

据说他已经出国学习了。
It is said that he has studied abroad.
大家都知道这座大桥要提前完工。
It is well known that the bridge will be completed ahead of time.
1）It + be + for sb. + to do sth.
做某事对于某人来说怎么样

做这项工作对我来说很难。
It’s difficult for me to do this work.
5. 2） It + be + of sb. + to do sth.某人做某事某人怎么样
如果不定式的逻辑主语是由of引起，主句中的形容词必须是能表示主语特征的形容词。常见的有：bad; brave; careless; clever; foolish 等，这个句型可以改写为：sb. + be + adj. + to do.
