及物動詞+ it ~ that...
及物動詞+ it ~ to... |
| 要點 | 這是所謂S + V + O + C的第五句型，充當真正受詞的that子句或不定詞片語被移至句末，而把形式受詞it放在前面來代替真受詞。 |
| 範例 | (a) I took it for granted that you would consent to my plan.
(b) I make it a rule to go to bed at ten.
(c) The loss of money has made it impossible for him to go abroad. |
| 詞彙 | take ~ for granted 視~為裡所當然；consent to 同意；rule 規則，習慣。 |
| |
| 中譯 | (a) 我認為你理所當然會同意我的計畫。
(b) 我習慣在十點就寢。
(c) 錢掉了使他無法出國。 |
| |
| 解說 | 這種主詞+ 動詞+ 形式主詞 + 補語 + 真正受詞 (名詞子句或不定詞) 的句型中，(a)的for granted充當補語。另外，(c) = The loss of money has made him unable to go abroad.。 |

| 類例 | He made it clear why he had done such a thing.
(他表明自己為何做了這種事。) |
