三、it作形式賓語

　　it 作形式賓語，代表其后所說的真正的賓語。真正的賓語是以that 引導的名詞性從句或不定式短語。例如：

　　I consider it wrong that you Chinese students learn English without comparing it with your own language.

　　我認為你們中國學生學習英語，不和你們自己的語言比較是不對的。

　　I find it not so difficult to learn a foreign language.

　　我發(fā)現(xiàn)學習一門外語不那么困難。

　　I remember I made it clear to you that I was not coming.

　　我記得向你明確表示過我不來。

　　They want to make it clear to the public that they are doing an important and necessary job.

　　他們要向公眾表明，他們在做一件重要而又必要的工作。

　　四、it 用于強調結構

　　在表示強調的結構中，it 可用作先行代詞，這種結構的句型如下：It +is/was +被強調的部分+that +其他部分。如果強調的部分是人，可用who, whom 代替that.

　　例如：

　　Professor Wang teaches us English every Monday afternoon.

　　王教授每星期一下午教我們英語。

　　強調主語：It is Professor Wang who teaches us English every Monday afternoon.

　　強調間接賓語：It is us whom Prof. Wang teaches English every Monday afternoon.

　　強調直接賓語：It is English that Prof. Wang teaches us every Monday afternoon.

　　強調狀語：It is every Monday afternoon that Prof. Wang teaches us English.

　　It was here that I first met him. 這就是我初次與他見面的地方。

　　(強調狀語)

　　It is the people who are realy powerful.
