在許多情況下，當(dāng)語義上需要用一個較復(fù)雜的that從句用主語時，若直接將其置于句首位置，則會顯得“頭輕腳重”。這時，我們通常采用的辦法便是使用形式主語it來改變句子結(jié)構(gòu)。如：
That he had no girl friends worried his parents a lot.= It worried his parents a lot that he had no girl friends. 他沒有女朋友，這件事使他父母非常不安。
That he has fully recovered makes me feel good.=It makes me feel good that he has fully recovered. 他已痊愈，真令我高興。
That he had not said anything surprised everybody.=It surprised everybody that he had not said anything. 他一言不發(fā)，這使大家很吃驚。
用形式主語改變句子結(jié)構(gòu)是許多同學(xué)都可能想得到的方式，屬通常思維，乃常規(guī)表達(dá)。但如果借助the fact這一輔助手段，按以下方式改寫句子，則會給人以耳目一新的感覺，許多閱卷老師會將其劃入“高級結(jié)構(gòu)”的范疇。如：
The fact that he had no girl friends worried his parents a lot.
The fact that he has fully recovered makes me feel good.
The fact that he had not said anything surprised everybody.
That he had no girl friends worried his parents a lot.= It worried his parents a lot that he had no girl friends. 他沒有女朋友，這件事使他父母非常不安。
That he has fully recovered makes me feel good.=It makes me feel good that he has fully recovered. 他已痊愈，真令我高興。
That he had not said anything surprised everybody.=It surprised everybody that he had not said anything. 他一言不發(fā)，這使大家很吃驚。
