IT as an empty object
BY MICHELLE
It as an empty object
Part 01
Look at the sentences and answer the questions. Sentences (a) and (c) are from the reading passage.
a No visitor would think it surprising that the island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
b No visitor would think that the island being a UNESCO World Heritage Site is surprising.
c Experts felt it necessary to come up with a plan to remove all the rabbits from the island.
d Experts felt to come up with a plan to remove all the rabbits from the island was necessary.
1 What does “it” refer to in sentences (a) and (c)
2 What is the difference between the sentences in each group
When the object of a sentence is a that-clause (b) or an infinitive (d), we sometimes use “it” as an empty object and put the real object later to keep balance. For example, sentence (a) uses “it” as the empty object of “think”, referring to the real object: “the island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site”. Sentence (b) uses that-clause as the object of “think”.
Now look for more sentences with this structure in the reading passage, and summarise its use in your own words.
This incident made it clear that the rat, mouse and rabbit problem needed solving once and for all.
…but we humans owe it to the island to give it a happy ending.

Located in Chengde City, Hebei Province, Saihanba (塞罕坝) sits 450 kilometers to the north of Beijing. The place is covered with snow seven months a year. It used to be a freezing, barren desert plagued by sandstorms. However, it has been turned into the world’s largest human-made forest that covers an area of nearly 75,000 hectares. Thus, it is called a “green miracle.”

Look at the diagram and answer the questions. Pay attention to the words and expressions in bold.
What does the diagram show
What are the relationships between the living things
What does the diagram show
What are the relationships between the living things
The diagram shows a food chain—the connection between the living things.
The living things are closely connected with each other by the food they eat. Secondary consumers prey on primary consumers, primary consumers feed on producers, and producers absorb light from the sun, and water and dissolved nutrients from the soil, which are provided by decomposers.
Complete the passage with the correct form of the words and expressions in Activity 5.
In a woodland ecosystem, trees and other plants are producers. They 1__________ water, and take in nutrients from the soil and energy from the sun. Insects are an example of a primary consumer. They 2__________ the producers to provide food for them, and are 3__________ by secondary consumers: small mammals and birds. They 4__________ the primary consumers. Worms, fungi and bacteria are decomposers. They 5_____________ animal waste and the remains of living things. The chemicals these decomposers 6__________ fertilise the soil and give the plants the nutrients they need to grow.

One of the oldest species in the ecosystem, the honey bee has been in existence for millions of years.
A honey bee can fly as fast as 24 kilometres per hour and its wings can beat 200 times per second.
In just one journey to collect pollen and nectar , one single honey bee can pollinate as many as 50 to 100 flowers.

Listen to the conversation and choose the true statements.
1 Bees are very important to our food supply because they provide honey.

6 Humans are responsible for the decline in the bee population.
Listen again and complete the flow chart.
