it用作形式主语的用法

一、基本用法

当不定式、动名词、从句等用作主语时,避免头重脚轻,通常在句首使用形式主语it,而把真正的主语放在句子末尾:

Is it necessary to tell his father everything? 有必要把这一切都告诉他父亲吗? It’s no good sitting up too late. 熬夜没有好处。

It is quite clear that he has read the book. 很显然,他读过这本书。 It doesn’t matter what he says. 他说什么没关系。

二、几种特殊的形式主语

(1) 用作动词look, seem, appear, happen, occur, follow等的主语(后接that从句或as if从句):

It seems as if it is going to rain. 看来要下雨了。 It seems that he knows everything. 他好像什么都知道。 It (so) happened that I had no money with me. 碰巧我没带钱。

三、误用形式主语的几种情形

(1) 在该用it作形式主语的地方而误用其他词: Is ______ necessary to tell his father everything? A. it C. what

B. that D. he

此题的正确答案应是A(it用作形式主语),而不能选D。 (2) 在不该用形式主语的地方而误用形式主语: ______ must be something wrong with the machine. A. There C. He

B. It D. That

此题应选A,为there be句型与情态动词must连用的情形。 比较以下两组句子:

______ is known to us all, the earth turns around the sun. ______ is known to us all that the earth turns around the sun. A. It C. As

B. Which D. That

前一句填C,as用以引导一个非限制性定语从句;后一句填A,it为形式主语,真正的主语是其后的that从句。

______ is difficult to persuade her to stay.

______ is difficult is to persuade her to stay. A. It C. He

B. What D. That

前一句填A,it为形式主语;后一句填B,what用以引导主语从句。注意后一句比前一句在不定式前多了个is。

\"How’s it going?\" \"Well, not so good.\" “情况如何?”“不是很好。” 6. 用于某些习语

(1) make it 及时赶到;成功,办成:

You can make it if you hurry. 如果你赶快还可以及时赶到。 He wants to make it as a writer. 他想作一名作家而一举成名。 You needn’t worry; he will make it. 你不必担心,他会办成的。 (2) catch it 被责骂,受处罚:

If I come home late I’ll catch it from my mother. 如果我回家晚了,我妈妈会骂我。

it用作人称代词的用法

1. 用于指事物

it用作人称代词最基本的用法就是代替前面已提到过的事物,以避免重复: This is my watch, it’s a Swiss one. 这是我的手表,它是瑞士制的。

I cannot find my watch; I must have lost it. 我找不到手表,我一定把它给丢了。

2. 用于指动物或婴儿

除用于指代事物外,还可指动物或性别不详的婴儿: “Where is the cat?” “It’s under the bed.” “

“Listen. Someone is crying.” “Oh, it must be Mary.” “听,有人在哭。”“噢,一定是玛丽。”

Someone must have been here. But we have no idea who it was. 一定有人来过,但我们不知道是谁。

5. 指人时与he和she的区别

当it用于指人时,主要用于确定未知的或者是身份不明的人,若是指已知的或身份明确的人,则应根据情况使用he或she。比较:

I hear a knock at the door. It must be the postman. 我听见有人在敲门,一定是邮递员来了。

Jim is at the door. He wants to see you. 吉姆在门口,他想见你。

A tall man stood up and shook hands with her. It was the general manager. 一个高个子站起来同她握了手,他是总经理。

The general manager just called. He told us to wait for him at the gate. 总经理刚来过电话,他叫我们在门口等他。

6. 指物时与one的区别

两者均可代替前面提到的事物,区别是:it指的是与前面已提到的事物为同一物,此时的it等于“the (this, that, my...)+名词”;而one 指的是与前面已提到的事物为同一类物,此时的one等于“a+名词”。比较:

I have a dictionary but I’ve lent it to Mary. 我有一本词典,但把它借给玛丽了。 I haven’t a dictionary; can you lend me one? 我没有词典,你能借我一本吗?

I take it (that) he will come on time. 我认为他会准时来的。
