It作形式主語是中學(xué)階段英語學(xué)習(xí)的主要語法項(xiàng)目之一，因此要懂得如何使用，以下是由學(xué)習(xí)啦小編整理關(guān)于形式主語it的用法的內(nèi)容，希望大家喜歡!

　　形式主語it的用法

　　當(dāng)不定式(短語)、動(dòng)名詞(短語)或從句在某個(gè)句子中作主語時(shí)，為保持句子結(jié)構(gòu)前后平衡，避免頭重腳輕，因此常用it作形式主語置于句首，而將真正的主語放在句尾。此時(shí)it只起先行引導(dǎo)作用，本身無詞義。

　　e.g. It is wrong to tell a lie.

　　(說謊是錯(cuò)誤的。) 〔It為to tell a lie的形式主語〕

　　It is no use arguing about it.

　　(爭吵是沒用的。) 〔It為arguing about it的形式主語〕

　　It is uncertain who will come.

　　(誰要來還不確定。) 〔It為who will come的形式主語〕

　　It 作形式主語的常見句型：

　　① It + be + 形容詞 + to do sth. / doing / that ….

　　e.g. It is very important to learn a foreign language.

　　(學(xué)一門外語非常重要。)

　　It is useless crying over the spilt milk.

　　(覆水難收。)

　　(你昨天沒看成那部電影真遺憾。)

　　It is a truth that there would be no new China without the Communist Party.

　　(沒有共產(chǎn)黨就沒有新中國，這是毋庸質(zhì)疑的。)

　?、?It + be + 過去分詞 + that ….

　　該句型常見動(dòng)詞有：say, hope, think, suppose, expect, report, know, believe, decide, etc.

　　e.g. It is said that they have invented a new type of computer.

　　e.g. It seems that he enjoys pop songs very much.

　　It appears that Tom might change his mind.

　　(看來湯姆可能會(huì)改變主意。)

　?、?若句子是疑問形式，就只能用it作形式主語。

　　e.g. Does it matter much that they won’t come tomorrow?

　　(他們明天不來很重要嗎?)

　　(他下周出國是真的嗎?)

　?、?It + takes + (sb.) + some time + to do sth.
