I Language Structures It Patterns Part 1

It seems that It happens that

It doesn’t matter + wh-word It all depends on + wh-word

pattern sb find it adj that

It seems that…

It 意思上表示的是“看上去，似乎”，后跟陈述语气的句子。 可以转换成 名词或代词 ＋ seem ＋ 动词不定式的句型，其原意不变。

或则如果动词不定式为to be ＋ 形容词时，to be往往省略

eg:It seemed that everything went wrong this morning everything

seemed to be wrong

everything seemed (to be)wrong

eg:It seems that he is happy.=He seems to be happy.=He

seems happy

拓展知识：

It seems to sb中it是个代词，代替前文所说的主语，后一般接句子。来表达某个人对某个问题的感受。 意为“在某人看来。。。” It seems as if“ ,意为“看起来好像”，后跟虚拟语气的句子。与that

引导的从句不同的是，as if 从句用虚拟语气的情况。 eg. It

seems as if he did know nothing It just (so) happened that he was

out of town 类似 It chanced that …

just so chanced /happened that the harvest was bad last

year

It does not matter wh- 接的陈述句,注意时态

It doesn't matter to me （对我来说没什么）里的matter是动词. What's the matter with you? （你怎么了）里的matter是名词.

It all depends on wh-

It all depends on human effort.事在人为 It depends on

circumstances这要视情况而定。

IV Guide writing1 Parts 9

The paragraph reads：

In our country, families used to be big with at least three

generations living under one roof. Therefore ,caring for the

elderly was not much of a problem. This ,however,

did not mean that all the people lived a happy life. Whether

the old were treated decently by their children was another story.

Wish the development of our country’s national economy, the

living standard of the people has greatly improved, and people

no longer want to crowd into one house.

Further, with the people’s way of life changing constantly, the

large family system is given up by most of the younger generation

who love to live a more private life; consequently the practice of

a large family living under one roof is abandoned.

At present, more and more elderly people are living by

themselves which brings forth new problems. Even if no

misfortune befalls them, there are enough problems to be

resolved. In the first place, they feel quite lonely all the time. Then,

when they become too old to take care of themselves, what is to

become of them? What if these elderly people fall ill, which is

common to the old? It is said that one third of the population in

some parts of

the country will be over sixty in the early part of the 21st

century. It is high time that the problem was given serious and

earnest attention now.
