  语句层次
  六. It作形式主语时的常用句型
  ㈠形式一:It is+形容词+that/wh-从句
  例:It is important_____________________(保持生态平衡)。
  答案:that we should keep the balance of nature
  (本题考查It 作形式主语时的用法,英语中的主语从句有时为了避免头重脚轻,常用it 作形式主语,而真正的主语用that引导放在后面)
  ㈡形式二:It+不及物动词+that…
  例:He has been here only three days and
  _______________________(由此可见他对那事一无所知)。
  答案:it follows that he knows nothing about that
  (本题考查 It+不及物动词+that…结构,注意前后句子时态的一致)
  ㈢形式三:It+be+名词+that…
  例:It is our wish that__________________(他爱怎么样就怎么样)
  答案:he does what he pleases
  (本题考查 It作形式主语的同时,涉及了考试大虚拟语气的考查,在it is our wish/hope that 等结构中,从句子的谓语动词要用should+动词原形这样的虚拟语气)
