1. 为什么要用it做形式主语而把真正的主语
放到后面?
为了保持句子结构前后平衡,避免头重脚轻。思考:
2. it替代不定式的It be adj. (for / of sb.) to do
句型中,介词for和of有何区别?
It is illegal for a person to drive a car
without a license.
It's kind of you to help me with the problem.1. 代作主语的动词不定式1) It be adj. for sb. to do sth.
此处的adj.通常为描述事件的形容词:
easy, difficult, hard, necessary, unnecessary,
possible, impossible, likely, unlikely, right,
wrong, important, unimportant, legal,
illegal, clear, obvious, certain, suitable,
proper, fit, useful, useless, dangerous, true…2) It be adj. of sb. to do sth.
此处的adj.通常为描述人的形容词:
kind, unkind, nice, rude, cruel, polite, impolite
considerate, thoughtful, careful, careless,
crazy, silly, foolish, stupid, clever, wise…It’s no good / no use / useless doing…
It’s worthwhile doing / to do
It is no use crying over spilt milk. 3) it替代作主语的动名词的常见句型2. it作形式主语替代主语从句It is clear (obvious / true / possible / certain
…) that ...
该句型中it 是形式主语, 真正的主语是
that 引导的主语从句, 常译为“清楚(显然,
真的……)”, 是主语从句最常见的一种结构。
It is very clear that he’s round and tall
like a tree. ① It is adj. + clause It is said (reported / learned / believed
/ thought / known / told / hoped...) that ...
该句型中的it 仍是形式主语, 真正主语是that
引导的主语从句; 该结构常译为“据说(据报道,
据悉…)”。
It is said that he has come to Beijing.
It is reported that another satellite will be
put into orbit.② It is v-ed that…③ It is + noun + 从句 It is a pity (a shame / an honor / a good thing /
a fact / a surprise...) that ...
该句型中, that后的从句一般用虚拟语气
(should + 动词原形), should可省去。表示
出乎意料, 常译为“竟然”。没有这种意义时,
则不用虚拟语气。
It is a pity that such a thing (should) happen
in your class. 五、it 用作形式宾语 当复合宾语中的宾语是不定式、动名词、宾语从句时,往往把宾语放在它的补足语后面,而用it 作形式宾语,放在宾语补足语之前。该句型中的it 作形式宾语,常用的动词有think, believe, make, find, consider, feel等。如: 1. I think it no use arguing with him.
2. I found it very interesting to study English.

in this subject.

= It was not until I returned that he left.It is / was not until…(被强调部分) + that ...
该句型也是强调句型。主要用于强调时间状语,
