(形容词或名词) +to do sth. A. 名词作表语。主要有a pity,a pleasure,an idea等。例如: In fact it is a hard job for the police to keep order in an important football match.。 B. 形容词或形容词短语作表语。分两种情况 1.kind,good,nice,clever,wrong,right,foolish,wise,unwise,stupid,rude,careless,cruel,brave,naughty,polite,selfish等词作表语时,不定式前常可加一个由of引起的短语,来说明不定式指的是谁的情况。形容词表示不定式逻辑主语的特征,即形容词用来描述不定式行为者的性格、品行等。例如: It was foolish of you to leave school.你中途退学,真是傻瓜。 It was brave of her to speak out in public. 她能当众大声讲话,真勇敢。 2) 其他形容词作表语,常见的形容词有:necessary,hard, important,difficult,easy,possible,common等。例如: It is necessary to use a short-wave radio to pick up the programmes. 必须用短波收音机才能收到节目。 如果要说明不定式表示的动作是谁做的,可以在不定式前加for + 名词或代词+ to do sth.(for 后的宾语不能作句子的主语)。名词或代词作不定式的逻辑主语,即表示不定式所指动作的执行者。在此句型中,形容词只对不定式行为者作某种描述,而不涉及其品行。例如: It is not hard for one to do a bit of good. 对于一个人来说做点好事并不难。 需要注意的是:动词不定式作主语,一般情况下用it作形式主语,而把动词不定式(从句)放在后面。也可以直接用不定式作主语。例如; It is wrong to tell lies. = To tell lies is wrong. 撒谎是不对的。 但在疑问句和感叹句中,只能用it作形式主语。例如: Isn't it a good idea to have a walk around? 出去兜一圈难道不是一个好主意吗? What a pleasure it is to work with you! 同你一起工作是多么愉快啊! ⒊It + v. + to do sth. 动词不定式作主语时除动词be以外,动词take,cost, need,require,make,sound,occur 等也可用it作形式主语,而把动词不定式放在后面。例如: It took us three years to complete the project. 我们花费三年时间才完成了这项工程。 It needed hard work to finish the job. 要完成这项工作需要努力地工作。 二..动名词作真正主语 用于这种形式的是一些特定的形容词和名词。例如: It was nice meeting you. 见到你真高兴! (分别时用) 它与不定式作真正主语的区别在于,动名词说到的动作已经发生。例如: It is nice to meet you. (刚刚见面时用) it 作形式主语,动名词作真正主语主要用于下列句型: It's +n.(名词或名词短语)/adj.(形容词)+ doing sth. 1)下列形容词后常用动名词作真正主语:nice,good,useless,hard,foolish,enjoyable,worthwhile等。例如: It is nice talking to you. 跟你交谈真是愉快。 It's foolish behaving like that. 这样的表现是很愚蠢的。 It is useless doing that. 那样做没用。 2)下列名词或名词短语作表语时常用动名词作真正主语:use,good,fun,a waste of,job,task等。例如: It's a waste of time doing this. 这样做是浪费时间的。 It's no good (use) doing that. 那样做没好处(没用)。 It's an awful job doing this. 做这事真是一件可怕的差事。 It's fun doing this. 做这事真有趣。 It is not an easy task doing this work. 做这工作真非易事. 三..名词从句作真正主语 用it 作形式主语的结构主要用于下列句型: It +谓语+名词从句(主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句) ⒈It is +名词+从句: 这样的名词有a fact,a surprise,an honor(非常荣幸),a pity,common knowledge(常识)等。例如: It is common knowledge that the full moon brings fair weather. 皓月兆天晴,这是常识。 It is a surprise that you gave such an answer to the question. 你对这个问题作了这样的回答,令人吃惊。 ⒉It is +形容词+从句: 这样的形容词有natural,true,strange,necessary,important,obvious(很明显),certain,wonderful,funny,possible,likely,probable等。例如: It is certain that free medical care will be given to most people in our city. 我们城市的多数人将享受免费医疗,这是一定的。 It is probable that he has known everything. 很可能他什么都已经知道了。 ⒊It +动词+从句: 这样的动词有seem,happen,appear,look,matter,make,strike,occur(突然想起)等。 It appeared that he had a taste for music. 看来他对音乐有一定的鉴赏力。 It made us very happy that she was saved.她能化险为夷令我们大家很高兴。 ⒋It + be + 分词+从句: 这样的分词有 said(据说), reported(据报道),believed(人们相信),known(众所周知),decided(已决定),proved(已证实),thought,expected,annouced,arranged,amusing,puzzling,striking等。例如: It is said that Li Hao has been to Europe.据说李郝去过欧洲。 It was amusing that a rabbit ran out of the empty box on the desk.桌上的空盒子里竟然跑出来一只兔子,太有趣了。

Until late in the 20th century, most Americans spent time with people of generations. Now mid-aged Americans may not keep in touch with old people until they are old themselves. That’s because we group people by age. We put our three-year-olds together in day-care center, our 13-year-olds in school and sports activities, and our 80-year-olds in senior-citizen homes. Why?

We live away from the old for many reasons: young people sometimes avoid the old to get rid of fears for aging and dying. It is much harder to watch someone we love disappear before our eyes. Sometimes it’s so hard that we stay away from the people who need us most.

Fortunately, some of us have found our way to the old. And we have discovered that they often save the young.

A reporter moved her family onto a block filled with old people. At first her children were disappointed. But the reporter baked banana bread for the neighbors and had her children deliver it and visit them. Soon the children had many new friends, with whom they shared food, stories and projects. “My children have never been less lonely,” the reporter said.

The young, in turn, save the old. Once I was in a rest home when a visitor showed up with a baby. She was immediately surrounded. People who hadn’t gotten out of bed in a week suddenly were ringing for a wheelchair. Even those who had seemed asleep wake up to watch the child. Babies have an astonishing power to comfort and cure.

Grandparents are a special case. They give grandchildren a feeling of security and continuity. As my husband put it, “my grandparents gave me a deep sense that things would turn out right in the end.”

Grandchildren speak of attention they don’t get from worried parents. “My parents were always telling me to hurry up, and my grandparents told me to slow down,” one friend said. A teacher told me she can tell which pupils have relationships with grandparents: they are quieter, calmer, more trusting.

1.Now in an American family, people can find that ________.

A. children never live with their parents

B. not all working people live with their parents

C. aged people are supported by their grandchildren

D. grandchildren are supported by their grandparents

2.The reason why old people are left alone may be that ________.

A. the old don’t like to live in a big family

B. the young can’t get enough money to support the old

C. different generations have different lifestyles

D. the old are too weak to live with the young

3.The fact that the reporter told us shows that ________.

A. old people in America lead a hard life

B. old people in America enjoy banana bread

C. she had no time to take care of her children

D. old people are easy to get along with

4.Seeing a baby, the old people get excited because ________.

A. they had never seen a baby before

B. the baby was clever and beautiful

C. the baby brought them the image of life

D. the baby’s mother would take care of them
