1、备战2011届高考英语（通用版）一轮复习专题14 it的用法【考纲解读】根据近向几年高考试题来看，it一直是考查的重点，尤其是it, that 和one不同的指代功能。试题注重情景的设置，需要利用特点语言环境中上下文的联系，正确分析结构，理解句意是做此类题目的关键。 命题的热点集中于以下几个方面: . 1. it/that/one用法区别（it主要指代前面提到的同一物；one用来指代前面出现的单数名词，相当于a/an+单数名词，表泛指概念，往往是同类而同一物；that用来替代前面出现的特指的单数可数名词或特指的不可数名词，相当于the单数/不可数名词）2. it用在某些动词后,如:enjoy,
2、like,dislike,resent,hate,dont mind,be fond of,feel like,see to 之后, 即这些动词后面的宾语从句前要加it代替其后的从句3. 用于强调句或固定句型（it is/was when/since/before）中. 4. 作形式宾语或形式主语（主要代替ving,to do或从句）5. 考查it 构成的习语，it也常表示抽象的情况,属于虚指. 如:Take it easy.【知识要点】It的用法（一）作人称代词1、it代替前面（或后面）的单数名词或分句等所表示的事物。e.g. You cannot eat your cake but hav
3、e it.（it代替前面的cake）Although we cannot see it, there is air all around us. （it代替后面的air）They say he has left town, but I dont believe it. （it代替前面Theytown分句中的情况）2、代替有生命但不能或不必分阴阳性的东西（包括婴儿）。e.g. Yesterday we saw a big tree. It was fully twenty metres high. （it代替前面的tree）The baby cried because it was hungry
4、. （it代替前面的baby）3、在某些习惯说法中，可以代替人。e.g. - Someone is knocking at the door, Peter.- Who is it?- Its me.- Who are singing?- It is the children.- The light is still on in the lab. It must be the third-year students doing the experiment.4、it与one的区别：这两个词都可以代表前面说过的名词，但it用于同名同物的场合；one则用于同名异物的场合。e.g. - Do you
5、still have the bicycle?- No, I have sold it.- Is this knife yours?- No. It is Xiao Zhangs. Mine is the one on the desk.5、it与that的区别：两词都可代替某一特定名词，但that指同一类，并非同一个。e.g. The climate of South China is mild（温和的）; I like it very much.（it指the climate of South China）The climate of South China is much better
6、than that of Japan.（that指the climate）（二）作无人称代词it作无人称代词时，除了句中找不到它所代表的词语外，另一个特点是它后面的内容都是表示天气、时间、距离、度量衡及情况等。It is fine (rainy, windy, etc.).It is noon.It is a half hours walk to the factory.It is eighteen square metres in area.What does it matter?（三）作强调词，构成强调结构用以帮助改变句子结构，使句子的某一成分受到强调。“It is (was) + 所强调
7、的成分 + that (who) + 其它成分。”在这个句型中，it本身没有词义。注意: 在强调结构中，如被强调部分为时间状语或地点状语，其后的连接词也绝不能为when 或where，而应用that 。在复习中，一定要注意句式的不同。It was in Shanghai that I bought the guitar(that引起强调句)It was Shanghai where I bought the guitar(where引起定从)It was twelve oclock when we arrived there(when引起时间状语从句）It was at twelve oclo
8、ck that we arrived there（that 引起强调句）（四）引导词it作形式主语（宾语）为了使句子平衡，常采用形式主语（或宾语）it ，而把真正的主语（或宾语）置于句子后面。通常引导词it与它所代替的句子成分中间要夹有某些词。e.g. It takes half an hour to go there on foot.（It与to go there on foot之间夹有takes half an hour四个词）We thought it strange that Mr Smith did not come last night. （it与that从句中间夹有 strang
9、e）但有时it与所替代部分之间并不夹有其它词。e.g. You may depend on it that they will support you.（因为介词on之后一般不直接接that引导的宾语从句。注意：it不是多余的，不能当作错句）（五）. it，one，that 的区别：作为代词，这三个词的对比使用是高考的热点之一。-Why dont we take a little break?-Didnt we just have _?Ait BthatCone Dthis The Parkers bought a new house but _will need a lot of work
10、before they can move inAthey Bit Cone Dwhich one 用以指代同类事物中的任一，that 特指性强，指代可数与不可数词，而it指代上文提过的同一事物。一、代词it用 法例 句代替前文提到过的东西或事情，用作人称代词。This is a new dictionary.

15、该受责怪。It was your uncle that (who) came yesterday. 昨天来的是你叔叔。原句的谓语动词如果是现在或将来时态用It is that(who)如果原句谓语动词是过去时态，则用It wasthat(who)。在宾语It was a new pen that Mother gave me .母亲给我的是一支新钢笔。强调时间，地点，原因或方式时不要用when, where, how, 必须用that。地点It was in the classroom that I left my umbrella.我把雨伞就落在了教室里。状语时间It is at eleve
16、n that the train leaves.火车是在十一点钟离开。方式It was just as he ordered that I acted.我正是照他吩咐的那样做的。原因It was because he was in trouble that I tried my best to help him.正是因为他处境困难我才尽力帮助他。宾补 It was red that we painted the gate.我们把门油漆成红的颜色。It was chairman that they elected him .他们选他担任的是主席的职务。【考点诠释】考点 it的用法在英语中，运用i
17、t的场合较多。从它在句中的作用和意义来看，it的用法可分为三类：1指代作用(1)用作人称代词，代替前文或后文所提到的同一事物(单数可数名词或不可数名词)。如：Although we cannot see it，there is air all around us虽然我们看不见空气，但它却在我们的周围。(2)代替前面的整个句子。如：It is said that he has died of a disease，but it isnt true据说他已经病死了，但这不是真的。(3)用在答语中代替指示代词this，that。如：一What is this?这是什么?一Its a bike是自行车。

19、r now现在是冬天了。2形式作用(1)形式主语当动词不定式、v.ing形式或从句作主语时，通常把它们放在谓语之后，而用it作句子的形式主语。如：(I)Its no use crying over spilt milk谚覆水难收。It takes three generations to make a gentleman谚十年树木，百年树人。 (2)形式宾语当复合宾语中的宾语是不定式、v-ing形式或宾语从句时，往往把真正的宾语放在补足语后面，而用it作形式宾语，放在宾语补足语之前。如：You must make it clear to them that the situation is s
20、erious你必须向他们表明形势是严峻的。)They thought it difficult to talk to the guests about the recent events他们觉得和客人们谈近来发生的事情很困难。特别提示形式宾语用在“主语+谓语动词+宾语”结构中，谓语动词appreciate，dislike，hate，like，love，make(按时到达，成功)等后接由if或when等引导的从句时，往往在从句前加形式宾语it。如：1 would appreciate it if you paid in cash如果你能支付现金的话，我会不胜感激。The boy likes it
21、 when you do that那个男孩喜欢你那样做。3强调作用it可以用来改变句子的结构，使句子的某一成分得到强调。强调句型的基本结构为：It is/was+所强调的成分+that/who/whom+其他成分。【高考链接】（2010高考英语辽宁卷，33）The fact that she was foreign made _difficult for her to get a job in that country A so B. much C. that D. it 【答案】D【解析】句意：她是外国人的事实使得她在哪个国家很难找到工作。考查it的用法。句中for her to get a
