形式主语it的用法。
在英语中,当动词不定式或者that从句作主语时,常用it作形式主语,把真正的主语动词不定式或者that从句置后。It处于主语的位置,但不是真正的主语,因此英语中称之为形式主语。常用的结构为:It is+形容词/名词短语+to do/that从句。
e.g: 1. It is important to learn English well.
2.It is a hard job that he cleans the street day and night.
注意:“It is+形容词/名词短语+to do”结构中,可在不定式前面加上一个for或者of引出动词不定式的逻辑主语。其中作表语的形容词是important,necessary, easy,difficult等描述事物特征的形容词时,用for引起的短语;
作表语的形容词是kind,clever, foolish, polite等描述人的性格、品质的形容词时,则用of引起的短语。
e.g: It is kind of you to help me a lot.
It is difficult for us to solve the problem.
② 形式宾语it的用法。
在英语中,当动词不定式或者that从句作宾语且后面接宾语补足语时,常用it作形式宾语,把真正的宾语动词不定式或者that从句置后。It处于宾语的位置,但不是真正的宾语,因此英语中称之为形式宾语。常用的结构为:think/feel/find/consider、make+it+形容词/名词短语+to do/that从句。
e.g:1. I find it pleasant to work with him.
2. She thinks it her duty to help us.

however 副词,意为“然而”,转折的意味较弱, 可位于句首、句中或句末,常用逗号与句子分开
but 连词 意为“但是”,转折的意味较强, 位于分句的句首 后面一般不用逗号.
