三、句式清单
句式1 It is/has been+一段时间+since ...
【教材原句】 It's exactly one month since the last reported case. 距上次报告病例已经过去整整一个月了。(教材P38)
句式分析: It is/was...since...表示“自从……以来多长时间了或出现了某种状态”,从句用一般过去时态,since后面是一个时间点,当从句中的动词是非延续性动词时,表示从这个动作开始计时;若从句中的动词是延续性的动词或状态时,则表示从这个动作或状态结束的时间算起。注意it后面的谓语动词一般是be,它也可用其完成时,即:It has been...since...。
【拓展】
(1)It is/has been+时间段+since...意为“自从……以来已有一段时间了”。since引导的时间状语从句常用一般过去时。
(2)It was+时间段+before...过了多久才……
(3)It was not long +before...没过多久就……
(4)It will (not) be+时间段+before...要过多久才……/不久就……

⑥After a short time, we'll adapt to the new environment.
→It will be a short time before we adapt to the new environment.
句式2 do/does/did+谓语动词
【教材原句】 But, although the death rate is very high,we will never give up on a patient,and our efforts do sometimes end in miracles.不过,虽然死亡率极高,但是我们永远不会放弃任何一个患者,何况我们的努力有时真的会产生奇迹。(教材P39)
句式分析:do/does/did放在动词前,强调谓语动词。
【拓展】
(1)“do/does/did+谓语动词”只有一般现在时和一般过去时,且只对肯定的谓语动词进行强调,不用于否定式和疑问式。do在句中要重读。(2)在祈使句中使用时,往往不表示命令,而表示强烈的请求,有时表达更加客气的语气。(3)强调句子的其他成分用强调句型:It is/was...that…
【经典练】完成句子

四、语法清单
It 作形式主语
【感知·语法规律】
1.It's not easy for us to learn a foreign language. 对我们来说,学习一门外语并不容易。
2.It happens that I have had some experience in dealing with him. 碰巧我在与他打交道方面有些经验。
3.It is no use arguing with Bill because he will never change his mind. 和比尔争论没有用,因为他永远不会改变主意。
4.It takes me 30 minutes to go to school by bike every day. 我每天骑自行车上学要花30分钟。
5.It's not much good conducting such a survey. 进行这样的调查没有太大意义。
【精讲·语法知识】
当动词不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或者从句作句子的主语时,通常用it(不能用that,this等词)来作形式主语代替它们,而将真正的主语放在后面,以保持句子结构的平衡。此时it只起先行引导作用,本身无词义。
1.it作不定式的形式主语句型
(1)It+be+名词/名词词组+to do sth.,这类名词有:a pleasure,a fact等。
It is not a good habit to stay up too late. 睡得太迟不是个好习惯。
(2)It+be+形容词+(for sb.)+to do sth.,这类形容词用来描述不定式行为本身的性质有:wrong,right,important,difficult,easy等。
It is necessary for you to be fully aware of your own shortcomings.充分认识自己的缺点是很必要的。
(3)It is+形容词+of sb.+to do sth.,这些形容词用来描述不定式行为者的性格、品行等时,不定式前常可加一个由of引起的短语。这类句型所涉及的常用形容词有:kind,good,polite,selfish等。
It was foolish of you to behave like that.你那种表现真是太蠢了。
(4)It takes+sb.+时间或金钱+to do sth.,这是一个表示某人花了多少时间或金钱做某事的句型。其中it是形式主语,代替后面的不定式,句中的sb.也可省略。
It took thousands of people many years to build the Great Wall.成千上万的人花了很多年才建成了长城。
2.it作动名词的形式主语的常用句型
It+be+名词/名词词组+doing sth.,这类名词有:(no) use,a waste of time等。
The doctor told us that it is no good eating too much meat.医生告诉我们吃太多的肉没有好处。
【经典练】 单句语法填空
①It is essential you to accomplish the papers before Sunday.
【答案】for
【详解】考查介词搭配。句意:你在周日之前完成这些论文是必要的。固定句型"It is essential for sb to do sth"表示"对某人来说做某事是必要的",其中介词用"for"引出对象。
②It's clever you to work out the maths problem.
【答案】of
【详解】考查介词辨析。句意:你真聪明,能解出这道数学题。固定句型"It is clever of sb to do sth"强调主语(you)本身具有"clever"的特质,此时介词需用"of"(若用"for"则侧重客观评价,如"It is difficult for you")。
③It is necessary for high school students (learn) another foreign language.
【答案】to learn
【详解】考查不定式。句意:高中生有必要再学一门外语。句型"It is necessary (for sb) to do sth"中,不定式"to learn"作真正主语,表示必要性指向的动作。
④As far as I'm concerned,it's no use (argue) with him,he won't change his mind.
【答案】arguing
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意:在我看来,和他争论没有用,他不会改变主意的。句型"It is no use doing sth"中,"no use"后必须接动名词形式,表示"做某事徒劳无益"。
3.it作主语从句的形式主语的常用句型
(1)It+be+形容词+主语从句。
It's certain that William will do well in the exam.威廉肯定能考得很好。
It's important that we (should) show consideration for others if we are to live in harmony with them in social life.在社会生活中,如果我们要与别人和谐共处,关心别人是很重要的。
[名师提醒]
在“It is important that...”句式中,it代替从句作主语时,that引导的主语从句中要用虚拟语气,即谓语动词应用“should+动词原形(或should have done)”或只用动词原形。
(2)It+be+名词/名词词组+主语从句,这类名词有:a fact,a pity,a shame等。
It is a fact that English is being accepted as an international language all over the world. 事实上,在世界范围内英语是公认的国际语言。
(3)It+be+过去分词+主语从句,这类过去分词有:known,announced,believed,decided等。
It is known to all that Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492. 众所周知,克里斯托夫·哥伦布于1492年发现了美洲。
[名师提醒]
在下列句式中,that从句要用虚拟语气:
“It is desired/suggested/settled/ requested/required/demanded/ordered/proposed/recommended...that...”
Is it settled that he (should) resign his office? 他辞职已成定局了吗?。
(4)It+不及物动词+主语从句,这类动词有:seem,matter,strike,occur等。

三、句式清单
句式1 It is/has been+一段时间+since ...
【教材原句】 It's exactly one month since the last reported case. 距上次报告病例已经过去整整一个月了。(教材P38)
句式分析: It is/was...since...表示“自从……以来多长时间了或出现了某种状态”,从句用一般过去时态,since后面是一个时间点,当从句中的动词是非延续性动词时,表示从这个动作开始计时;若从句中的动词是延续性的动词或状态时,则表示从这个动作或状态结束的时间算起。注意it后面的谓语动词一般是be,它也可用其完成时,即:It has been...since...。
【拓展】
(1)It is/has been+时间段+since...意为“自从……以来已有一段时间了”。since引导的时间状语从句常用一般过去时。
(2)It was+时间段+before...过了多久才……
(3)It was not long +before...没过多久就……
(4)It will (not) be+时间段+before...要过多久才……/不久就……
(5)It+is/was+时间状语+that+其他
(6)It is/was+时间点+when引导的定语从句或时间状语从句

⑤I have been learning wood carving for half a year.
→________________________________________________________ I began to learn wood carving.
⑥After a short time, we'll adapt to the new environment.
→________________________________________________________ we adapt to the new environment.
句式2 do/does/did+谓语动词
【教材原句】 But, although the death rate is very high,we will never give up on a patient,and our efforts do sometimes end in miracles.不过,虽然死亡率极高,但是我们永远不会放弃任何一个患者,何况我们的努力有时真的会产生奇迹。(教材P39)
句式分析:do/does/did放在动词前,强调谓语动词。
【拓展】
(1)“do/does/did+谓语动词”只有一般现在时和一般过去时,且只对肯定的谓语动词进行强调,不用于否定式和疑问式。do在句中要重读。(2)在祈使句中使用时,往往不表示命令,而表示强烈的请求,有时表达更加客气的语气。(3)强调句子的其他成分用强调句型:It is/was...that…
【经典练】完成句子
①I _________________ hope you can get your driver's license as soon as possible.我真的希望你能尽快拿到驾照。
②I know that you didn't expect me to go, but I _________________ go.我知道你没料到我会去,但我确实去了。

【精讲·语法知识】
当动词不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或者从句作句子的主语时,通常用it(不能用that,this等词)来作形式主语代替它们,而将真正的主语放在后面,以保持句子结构的平衡。此时it只起先行引导作用,本身无词义。
1.it作不定式的形式主语句型
(1)It+be+名词/名词词组+to do sth.,这类名词有:a pleasure,a fact等。
It is not a good habit to stay up too late. 睡得太迟不是个好习惯。
(2)It+be+形容词+(for sb.)+to do sth.,这类形容词用来描述不定式行为本身的性质有:wrong,right,important,difficult,easy等。
It is necessary for you to be fully aware of your own shortcomings.充分认识自己的缺点是很必要的。
(3)It is+形容词+of sb.+to do sth.,这些形容词用来描述不定式行为者的性格、品行等时,不定式前常可加一个由of引起的短语。这类句型所涉及的常用形容词有:kind,good,polite,selfish等。
It was foolish of you to behave like that.你那种表现真是太蠢了。
(4)It takes+sb.+时间或金钱+to do sth.,这是一个表示某人花了多少时间或金钱做某事的句型。其中it是形式主语,代替后面的不定式,句中的sb.也可省略。
It took thousands of people many years to build the Great Wall.成千上万的人花了很多年才建成了长城。
2.it作动名词的形式主语的常用句型
It+be+名词/名词词组+doing sth.,这类名词有:(no) use,a waste of time等。
The doctor told us that it is no good eating too much meat.医生告诉我们吃太多的肉没有好处。
【经典练】 单句语法填空
①It is essential you to accomplish the papers before Sunday.
②It's clever you to work out the maths problem.
③It is necessary for high school students (learn) another foreign language.
④As far as I'm concerned,it's no use (argue) with him,he won't change his mind.
3.it作主语从句的形式主语的常用句型

It's important that we (should) show consideration for others if we are to live in harmony with them in social life.在社会生活中,如果我们要与别人和谐共处,关心别人是很重要的。
[名师提醒]
在“It is important that...”句式中,it代替从句作主语时,that引导的主语从句中要用虚拟语气,即谓语动词应用“should+动词原形(或should have done)”或只用动词原形。
(2)It+be+名词/名词词组+主语从句,这类名词有:a fact,a pity,a shame等。
It is a fact that English is being accepted as an international language all over the world. 事实上,在世界范围内英语是公认的国际语言。

“It is desired/suggested/settled/ requested/required/demanded/ordered/proposed/recommended...that...”
Is it settled that he (should) resign his office? 他辞职已成定局了吗?。
(4)It+不及物动词+主语从句,这类动词有:seem,matter,strike,occur等。
