典型形式宾语考题分析
I don’t think __________ possible to master a foreign language without much memory work.
A. this B. that C. its D. it
【分析】此题的选项A,B都容易误选。其实此题应选D,主要考查形式宾语 it 的使用。一般说来,形式宾语it主要用于以下句型:动词+it+宾语补足语+真正的宾语。其中的动词通常是 think,find,feel,believe,take,consider,make 等;其中的宾语补足语通常是形容词,有时是名词;而其中真正的宾语通常是比较复杂的成分(如不定式、动名词、从句等):
We found it difficult to persuade her. 我们发现很难说服她。
He makes it a rule to get up before dawn. 他习惯于天亮前起床。
We found it an easy thing to get along with him. 我们发现与他相处很容易。
I think it very strange that he goes out walking
almost every night. 我认为他几乎每晚都出去散步是很奇怪的。
有时可在用作宾语的不定式前加上介词 for / of短语:
People felt it impossible for man to fly into the outer space some years ago. 几年前,人们觉得人不可能飞入太空。
I don’t think it wise for [of] him to choose such a difficult subject. 我认为他选择这样难的学科是不明智的。
