- 用法:It 代替真正的主语或宾语(通常是动词不定式或从句),使句子更简洁。
形式主语
- 结构:It’s + 形容词 + to do sth / that 从句
- 例子:
- It’s a pity to make a fool of you.
- 真正主语:To make a fool of you(愚弄你是件遗憾的事)。
- It doesn’t matter what you do.
- 真正主语:What you do(你做什么无所谓)。
- It’s important to learn English.
- 真正主语:To learn English(学英语很重要)。

- 真正主语:Getting the equipment loaded(装设备很容易)。

形式宾语
- 结构:动词 + it + 形容词 + 真正宾语(to do / that 从句)
- 例子:
- I find it exciting working here.
- 真正宾语:working here(我发现在这儿工作很刺激)。
- He made it his business to settle the matter.
- 真正宾语:to settle the matter(他把解决问题当成了自己的职责)。

📌 6. 引导强调句
- 用法:It is/was + 强调部分 + that/who/which/when/where,突出句子中的某个成分(主语、宾语、副词等)。
- 结构特点:去掉 It is/was 和 that 后,句子仍完整。
