三、语法知识梳理

本单元核心语法为 It is/was + adj. + of/for sb. + to do sth. 句型 。

（一）句型结构

It is/was + 形容词 + of/for sb. + to do sth.

 

it 作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的 to do 不定式短语。

 

翻译：“（某人）做某事是……的。”

 

（二）of 与 for 的核心区别

对比项 for sb. of sb.

形容词类型 

for sb.描述事物性质（important, necessary, difficult, easy, dangerous, useful, possible 等）             

of sb.描述人的品质/性格（kind, brave, wise, clever, nice, polite, careless, foolish 等）

侧重点 强调“做某事”本身如何 强调“某人”具有什么品质

 

能否改写 不可改写为“Sb. + be + adj. + to do” 可改写为“Sb. + be + adj. + to do”

 

例句 It is important for us to learn English. It is kind of you to help me.

改写验证 ✗ We are important to learn English. ✓ You are kind to help me.

记忆口诀：

 

for 后接“事”（important, easy, difficult...）

of 后接“人”（kind, clever, brave...）

 

（三）真题示例

It‘s important for us to work hard in order to have a better life.

 

It was great of him to develop a new kind of rice and help reduce hunger.

 

It is necessary for us to remember safety rules.

 

（四）拓展句型

It is/was + adj. + that 从句：表示“某事是……的”，it 为形式主语，that 从句为真正主语 。

 

It was amazing that Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes.

 

It is important that we keep healthy.
