第一篇：IT用法小结
It用法小结
王婷婷
It的用法复杂多变，现对it的用法小结一下。
1.It 用作人称代词：It可用代词，作人称代词，指前面已经提到过的事物，动物或人，在句中作主语或宾语．
例如：1）.He bought a dictionary and gave it to me.(指代物品the dictionary)2）.Don’t think any more about it.(指代事件）3）.---Who is that ?---It’s me.Open the door, please.(指代人）
2.It 用作非人称代词：It 也用作非人称代词，常常用作句子主语，表示天气，日期，时间，温度，距离等．
1）.It was raining when I left the office.(表示天气)2）.It is February 14th today.(表示日期)3）.It is an hour’s walk from my home to the school.(表示距离)IT在表示时间时要注意以下的一些句式：
① It be … since...该句型主句中的 it 指时间,主句中是时间作表语，其时态是现在时或完成时，since 引导的从句通常是一般过去时态。如果主句是一般过去时，从句则用过去完成时。
It is(has been)5 years since his father died.It was 5 years since I had enjoyed myself so much.It is(has been)5 years since I smoked.②It be...when...该句型中的 when 引导的是一个时间状语从句，主句中的 it 指时间，表语由具体的时间充当。常译为“当……的时候，是……”。
It was 5 o'clock when he came here.③It be...before...该句型主句中的 it 指时间, 主句中的时态常是将来一般时或过去时两种时态．主句中的表语多是long, not long , 3 days , 2 weeks 等表示时间段的词或短语。常译为“……之后……”“过多久....才...”。
It was 3 days before he went to Beijing.It will be not long before he finishes his job.④It is time(about time , high time)that...该句型中that 后的从句应该用虚拟语气，① 常用过去时态表示虚拟．② 有时也用should + 动词原形，should 不能省。常译为“是（正是）……的时侯……”。
It is time that children should go to bed.= It is time that children went to bed.⑤It is the first(second …)time that …该句型要和上一个句型区别开来。该句型中的 that 从句不用虚拟语气，而用完成时态。至于用什么完成时态，由主句的谓语动词的时态决定。如果是一般现在时，后面从句用现在完成时态；如果是一般过去时，后面从句则用过去完成时态。该结构中 that 可以省去；it 有时用 this 替换，常译为“是第一
（二）……次……”。
It is the first time I have been here.= This is the first time I have been here.3.It作形式主语
替代作主语的从句、动词不定式、动名词，为避免“头重脚轻”，而把真正作主语的从句、动词不定式、动名词置于句尾。
It 作形式主语的常见句型：
1）.替代作主语的动词不定式，其句型为
①
It be adj.(for∕of sb.)to do sth.常见的形容词有：
important, necessary, natural ,easy, safe, common, normal, hard, difficult, dangerous, unusual, impossible, pleasant,foolish,clever,brave,kind,wise 等。
②
It takes sb.sometime to do sth.2）
替代作主语的动名词的常见句型：
It’s no good/ no use / useless doing… 3).替代作主语的从句常见句型
①It is + noun(a pity, a shame, no wonder)+从句
②.It is adj.+clause ③It is v-ed that…=sb/sth is to do
(verb=say, report, think, believe, hope, expect, agree, accept, decide, determine, intend, plan, understand, know,suggest,demand,request,order等）如果为表示命令，建议，要求的词，则从句要用虚拟语气，及shoule+v.（should可省）
④It verb(to sb.)that…= sb/sth verb to do(verb = appear, seem, happen, occur, turn out 等)
⑤It verb sb.+ clause= It is v-ing + clause
It+surprise/delight/interest/disappoint/worry/disturb/annoy/amaze/bother/concern/frighten/please/anger sb.that…
4.It作形式宾语
当不定式、动名词、that 从句作宾语，又有自己的宾语补语时，要用it 作形式宾语，而把真正的宾语后置。能够用于形式宾语句型的动词有think, make, find, consider, feel, take，suppose,keep等。如：
Marx found it important to study the situation in Russia.The fisherman made it a rule that he never cast his net more than four times a day.We think it necessary reading aloud every morning to improve our English.以下的动词在接宾语从句时需要先加it再接从句：hate,like,dislike,love,appreciate,enjoy,prefer等。
eg.I would appreciate it if you would like to teach me how to use the computer.I hate it when people talk with their mouths full.I like it in the autumn when the weather is clear and bright.5.It 用在强调句型中
①It is + 被强调部分 + that...该句型是强调句型。将被强调的部分放在前面，其它部分置于that 之后。被强调部分可以是主语，宾语，或状语。强调的对象是人时,可用who, whom, that,其余情况一律用 that;当强调对象在从句中做主语时用who, that,当强调对象在从句中作宾语时用whom ,that如果把这种句型结构划掉后，应该是一个完整无缺的句子。这也是判断强调句型与其它从句的方法。
It was about 600 years ago that the first clock with a face and an hour hand was made.It was they that(who)cleaned the classroom yesterday.It was in the street that I met her father.②.强调对象是疑问词
Why is it that you want to leave so soon? ③.It is not until + 被强调部分 + that...该句型也是强调句型。主要用于强凋时间状语，译成汉语 “直到……才……”，可以说是 not...until...的强调形式。
It was not until she took off her dark glasses that I realized she was a famous film star.= Not until she took off her dark glasses did I realize she was a famous film star.= I didn't realize she was a famous film star until she took off her dark glasses.

It用法小结
it在英语语法中属人称代词，意思是“它”，用来指人以外的一切生物和事物。它的用法不仅不简单，而且很复杂。
一、用于指人以外的一切生物、无生命的东西和事情。
一般指说话者心目中已经了解或所指的生物、无生命的东西或事情、没有性别的区分；可以是可数名词，也可以是不可数名词，在句子中既可做主语，也可以作宾语。
1．指动物和植物。如：
—Oh，that's Lucy's hat．噢，那是露茜的帽子。
—It looks like a cat！它看上去像只猫！
Where's tea grown？It's grown in the southeast of China．
什么地方种植茶？中国东南部种植茶。
2．指代一些无生命的东西。如：
Is it your watch？这是你的手表吗？
Look at the rain！It's heavy，isn't it？看这雨！雨很大，对吗？
3．代替上文提到过的整个事情。如：
Well，you mustn't play on the road．It's dangerous．哦，你不能在公路上玩。这太危险了！It was hard work，but they really enjoyed it．摘苹果是艰苦活，可他们都乐意去干（它）。
二、用于指代人。
1．指代说话者心目中不太清楚的那个人，常在打电话或敲门时用。如：
—Who was it？是谁（打来的电话）？
—Was it Susan？（打电话的）是苏珊吗？
—Yes，it was．是的，我是。（根据上下句，“it was”也可不译出来。）
再如：—Who is knocking at the door？谁在敲门？
—It's me．是我。
2．指说话者心目中的那个人。如：
—Is it your sister，Kate？（那旧照片上的 baby）是你姐姐凯特吧？
—No！不是。
—Is it your brother？是你哥哥吧？
—No！不是。
—I know—it's you！我知道了，（那）是你。
3．指代性别不详的婴幼儿或在不计较性别时，也可用it来指人。如
The child smiled when it saw its mother．这小孩一见到母亲就笑了。
I don't know who it is．我不知道他是谁。
注意：看到这样的句子（或听到这样的话）时，要想一想，不要一看到it就把它译成“它”。）
4．在回答用指示代词表示人的特殊问句时，常用it指人。如：
—Who's that？那人是谁？
—Is it Kate？是凯特吗？
—Yes，I think you're right．It's Kate．是的，我想你说对了，是凯特。
三、用于指时间、距离和自然现象等。
1．表示时间。如：
—What time is it？几点钟？
—It's ten．十点钟。
It's summer in Australia now．现在澳大利亚是夏天。
特别注意it用于表示时间时还常见于以下两个句型中：
（1）It's time（for sb．）to do sth．／It's time for sth．译为“是（某人）该干„„的时间了”、“到„„的时候了”。如：
It's time for supper／to have supper．是吃晚饭的时候了。
I think it's time for us to start the lesson now．我想现在是我们开始上课的时候了。
（2）It is ／has been ＋时间段＋since ＋一般过去时。译为“自从„„以来已过了„„（时间）”。此结构可以与另一种句型进行同义句转换。如：
It has been two weeks since we met last．＝ Two weeks has passed since we met last．自从我们上次相遇以来，两个星期过去了。
It's three years since he came here．＝It has been three years since he came here．＝He has been here for three years．他到这里已经三年了。
2．表示距离。如：
It's half an hour's walk from my home to the school．从我家到学校步行得花半小时时间。—Where's the farm，Li Lei？Is it far？李雷，农场在哪里？远吗？
—No，it's quite near．不，（距）离这很近。
3．表示自然现象。如：
Sometimes it snows and the land is all white．有时下雪，大地一片白。
It is very quiet here at the moment．眼下这儿很安静。
四、用作形式主语。
英语中常常见到某个句子以it开头，it与其后面的动词不定式短语、动名词短语、名词性从句等相呼应，以表达一个完整的意义。这是一种习惯表达法，这样的句式可避免句子显得头重脚轻。
1．It＋is／was＋形容词＋（for／of sb．）＋动词不定式短语。对于这个句型中究竟用 for还是用of，一般遵循这样的规则：如果形容词仅仅是描述事物的形容词，如：difficult，easy，hard，important，dangerous等用for；如果形容词是描述不定式行为者的性格、品质的，如：kind，good，nice，clever等则用of。如：
It is interesting to play with snow in winter．冬季里玩雪是很有趣的。
It's important for us to keep the water clean．保持水质清洁对我们来说是很重要的。It's very kind of you to say so．你这样说真是太好了。
注意：这一句式中的形容词位置也可换用名词；连系动词be也可换用其它连系动词，如feel等。如：
It's a good habit to get up early and go to bed early．早睡早起是好习惯。
It must be great fun to fly to the moon in a spaceship．乘宇宙飞船飞往月球一定很有趣。It feels strange to have a twin sister．有个孪生姐妹感觉很奇怪。
2．It ＋will be／is ／was ＋形容词＋动名词短语。如：
It's bad playing in the street．在街上玩是没好处的。
Is it any good trying again？再试一次有用吗？
3．It＋is／was＋形容词＋从句。如：
It is certain that he will come．他一定会来。
It's true that he may fall behind the other students．他真的可能落后于其他同学。
It is strange that he should say so．他居然这么说，真是奇怪。
4．It ＋is ／was ＋one's turn（duty，pleasure）＋to do sth．意为“该轮到某人做某事（做某事是某人的责任、愉悦的事）”。如：
It's your turn to be on duty tomorrow．明天轮到你值日了。
5．It takes（sb．）some time to do sth．意为“（某人）花„„时间做某事”。如
It took me a week to finish reading the book．我花了一周时间看完这本书。
6．It ＋cost／costs ＋sb．＋some money ＋to do sth．译为“某人花多少钱做某事”。如：It cost me 260 yuan to buy the new watch．我买这块新手表花了260元。
7．It seems ／seemed ＋从句。译为“看起来好像„„”，此结构可以转换成“seem ＋动词不定式”形式。如：
It seems that he is ill．＝He seems to be ill．看起来他好像病了。

② In fact________ is a hard job for the police to keep order in an important football match.A.thisB.thatC.thereD.it
答案: ① D ② D
五、用作形式宾语。
当句子的真正宾语是动词不定式、动名词或从句时，为避免句子头重脚轻，须将其放在宾语补足语之后，改用先行词it占据其原来的位置。it用作形式宾语的句型为：主语＋谓语＋it＋宾语补足语＋动词不定式／动名词／从句。该句型中宾语补足语可由形容词、名词等充当。如：
He found it not easy to learn a foreign language well．他发现学好一门外语是不容易的。We think it no good reading in bed．我们认为躺在床上看书无益处。
I think it necessary that we have the meeting．我认为开这个会是必要的。

一、用于指人以外的一切生物、无生命的东西和事情。
一般指说话者心目中已经了解或所指的生物、无生命的东西或事情、没有性别的区分；可以是可数名词，也可以是不可数名词，在句子中既可做主语，也可以作宾语。1．指动物和植物。如：
—Oh，that's Lucy's hat．噢，那是露茜的帽子。
—It looks like a cat！它看上去像只猫！
Where's tea grown？It's grown in the southeast of China．
什么地方种植茶？中国东南部种植茶。2．指代一些无生命的东西。如： Is it your watch？这是你的手表吗？
Look at the rain！It's heavy，isn't it？看这雨！雨很大，对吗？ 3．代替上文提到过的整个事情。如：
Well，you mustn't play on the road．It's dangerous．哦，你不能在公路上玩。这太危险了！It was hard work，but they really enjoyed it．摘苹果是艰苦活，可他们都乐意去干（它）。
二、用于指代人。
1．指代说话者心目中不太清楚的那个人，常在打电话或敲门时用。如：
—Who was it？是谁（打来的电话）？ —Was it Susan？（打电话的）是苏珊吗？
—Yes，it was．是的，我是。（根据上下句，“it was”也可不译出来。）再如：—Who is knocking at the door？谁在敲门？
—It's me．是我。
2．指说话者心目中的那个人。如：
—Is it your sister，Kate？（那旧照片上的 baby）是你姐姐凯特吧？
—No！不是。
—Is it your brother？是你哥哥吧？
—No！不是。
—I know—it's you！我知道了，（那）是你。
3．指代性别不详的婴幼儿或在不计较性别时，也可用it来指人。如 The child smiled when it saw its mother．这小孩一见到母亲就笑了。I don't know who it is．我不知道他是谁。注意：看到这样的句子（或听到这样的话）时，要想一想，不要一看到it就把它译成“它”。）4．在回答用指示代词表示人的特殊问句时，常用it指人。如：
—Who's that？那人是谁？
—Is it Kate？是凯特吗？
—Yes，I think you're right．It's Kate．是的，我想你说对了，是凯特。
三、用于指时间、距离和自然现象等。1．表示时间。如：
—What time is it？几点钟？
—It's ten．十点钟。
It's summer in Australia now．现在澳大利亚是夏天。特别注意it用于表示时间时还常见于以下两个句型中：（1）It's time（for sb．）to do sth．／It's time for sth．译为“是（某人）该干„„的时间了”、“到„„的时候了”。如：
It's time for supper／to have supper．是吃晚饭的时候了。
I think it's time for us to start the lesson now．我想现在是我们开始上课的时候了。
（2）It is ／has been ＋时间段＋since ＋一般过去时。译为“自从„„以来已过了„„（时间）”。此结构可以与另一种句型进行同义句转换。如：
It has been two weeks since we met last．＝ Two weeks has passed since we met last．自从我们上次相遇以来，两个星期过去了。
It's three years since he came here．＝It has been three years since he came here．＝He has been here for three years．他到这里已经三年了。2．表示距离。如：
It's half an hour's walk from my home to the school．从我家到学校步行得花半小时时间。
—Where's the farm，Li Lei？Is it far？李雷，农场在哪里？远吗？
—No，it's quite near．不，（距）离这很近。3．表示自然现象。如：
Sometimes it snows and the land is all white．有时下雪，大地一片白。It is very quiet here at the moment．眼下这儿很安静。
四、用作形式主语。
英语中常常见到某个句子以it开头，it与其后面的动词不定式短语、动名词短语、名词性从句等相呼应，以表达一个完整的意义。这是一种习惯表达法，这样的句式可避免句子显得头重脚轻。
1．It＋is／was＋形容词＋（for／of sb．）＋动词不定式短语。对于这个句型中究竟用 for还是用of，一般遵循这样的规则：如果形容词仅仅是描述事物的形容词，如：difficult，easy，hard，important，dangerous等用for；如果形容词是描述不定式行为者的性格、品质的，如：kind，good，nice，clever等则用of。如：
It is interesting to play with snow in winter． 冬季里玩雪是很有趣的。
It's important for us to keep the water clean．保持水质清洁对我们来说是很重要的。It's very kind of you to say so．你这样说真是太好了。注意：这一句式中的形容词位置也可换用名词；连系动词be也可换用其它连系动词，如feel等。如：
It's a good habit to get up early and go to bed early．早睡早起是好习惯。
It must be great fun to fly to the moon in a spaceship．乘宇宙飞船飞往月球一定很有趣。It feels strange to have a twin sister．有个孪生姐妹感觉很奇怪。2．It ＋will be／is ／was ＋形容词＋动名词短语。如： It's bad playing in the street．在街上玩是没好处的。Is it any good trying again？再试一次有用吗？ 3．It＋is／was＋形容词＋从句。如：
It is certain that he will come．他一定会来。It's true that he may fall behind the other students．他真的可能落后于其他同学。It is strange that he should say so．他居然这么说，真是奇怪。
4．It ＋is ／was ＋one's turn（duty，pleasure）＋to do sth．意为“该轮到某人做某事（做某事是某人的责任、愉悦的事）”。如：
It's your turn to be on duty tomorrow．明天轮到你值日了。5．It takes（sb．）some time to do sth．意为“（某人）花„„时间做某事”。如 It took me a week to finish reading the book．我花了一周时间看完这本书。
6．It ＋cost／costs ＋sb．＋some money ＋to do sth．译为“某人花多少钱做某事”。如： It cost me 260 yuan to buy the new watch．我买这块新手表花了260元。7．It seems ／seemed ＋从句。译为“看起来好像„„”，此结构可以转换成“seem ＋动词不定式”形式。如：
It seems that he is ill．＝He seems to be ill．看起来他好像病了。

五、用作形式宾语。
当句子的真正宾语是动词不定式、动名词或从句时，为避免句子头重脚轻，须将其放在宾语补足语之后，改用先行词it占据其原来的位置。it用作形式宾语的句型为：主语＋谓语＋it＋宾语补足语＋动词不定式／动名词／从句。该句型中宾语补足语可由形容词、名词等充当。如：
He found it not easy to learn a foreign language well．他发现学好一门外语是不容易的。We think it no good reading in bed．我们认为躺在床上看书无益处。I think it necessary that we have the meeting．我认为开这个会是必要的。[原题再现] Don't ________that all those who get good grades in the entrance examination will prove to be most successful.A.take as granted
B.take this for granted C.take that for granted
