hehe! thank you !
but there is another sentence that i can't understand it and it's grammar, please help me.
" sir denis, who is 78, has made it known that much of his collection is to be left to the nation"
who is 78 是前面的定语，has 是谓语，但后面的就看不太懂。作者: 雨落风残 时间: 2012-3-1 17:08
sir denis, who is 78, has made it known that much of his collection is to be left to the nation"
现年78岁的丹尼斯先生已经宣布，他的大部分藏品将捐给国家。
made it known 就是将什么什么公之于众。it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的that引导的从句。much of就是什么什么东西的大多数，大部分。left to somebody 就是留给某人的意思。作者: 王笑天 时间: 2012-3-1 17:50
形式主语和形式宾语通常用在不定式中，用it代替。 形式主语it 谓语或宾语 adj to do sth 如It is useful to study English。在这个句中真正的主语是后面的to do形式，it 叫形式主语。 形式宾语的句子 主语 谓语或宾语 it adj to do sth 如I think it is interesting to dance 。真正的宾语是to do形式，it叫形式宾语。 形式主语和宾语的使用都是为了简化语句，让别人一目了然。当主语、宾语是很长的从句、不定式、动名词时常用“形式主语”和“形式宾语”来替代，而真正的主语、宾语置于句末。之所以用it 代替是 避免头重脚轻。
编辑本段用法辨析
1.用“形式主语”的情况下，说明真正的主语（从句、不定式、动名词）较长， 用“形式主语”是比较符合英语习惯的。不用也可，但句子显得头重脚轻。如： That he won the game is true. 不如It is true that he won the game . 2.在要用“形式宾语”的情况下，“形式宾语”是必须要用的，如： I find it hard to get along with her. 不可把to get along with her放在find 和 hard 之间。作者: tingroom 时间: 2012-3-2 16:11
