你学过哪些it作形式宾语的句式?
it 作形式宾语的用法?
当不定式、动名词或从句在某个句子中作宾语时,为了保持句子的结构平衡,常用it作为形式宾语,而将真正的宾语放到句子后部去。
it 没有具体的意义,仅用于维持句子结构平衡。构成结构为:
动词+it+宾语补足语+真正的宾语
it作形式宾语宾要有三种情况:代表不定式作形式宾语、代表动名词作形式宾语、代表宾语从句作形式宾语。
常见的以it作形式宾语的动词有:feel, consider, find, believe, make, take, imagine, prove, think, suppose, regard, notice等。
it 代表不定式作形式宾语
He found it pleasant to work with us Chinese.
He makes it a rule never to borrow money from others.
I don’t feel it difficult to understand the passage.
注意:当真正的宾语是动词不定式(短语)时,不定式(短语)可以有自己的逻辑主语,该逻辑主语常由for引出。
e.g. He likes stay up late, so he often feels sleepy, which makes it difficult for him to concentrate on what he is doing.
(逻辑主语和真正的主语保持一致,都是he)
He likes stay up late, so he often feels sleepy, which makes it uncomfortable for his colleagues to work with him.
(逻辑主语his colleagues和真正的主语he不一致)
it 代表动名词作形式宾语
I think it no good spending too much time watching TV.
我认为花太多时间看电视是没有好处的。
I feel it hard work persuading him into doing it.
我感觉说服他做那件事很难。
用v-ing(短语)作真正的宾语时,其宾补通常是no use, no good, a waste, hard work等。
it 代表宾语从句作形式宾语
动词+it+that从句(常见于take, have, put等动词之后)
I take it that he will finish the task by himself.
我认为他能自己完成这项任务。
动词+it+when/if从句(常见于hate, like, love, appreciate, enjoy, prefer等动词之后)
I hate it when he talks with his mouth full.
I’d appreciate it if you could do us a favour.
it 代表宾语从句作形式宾语

You should bring it to his attention that you are too weak to go on working.
