【陷阱】很容易誤選B,認(rèn)為兩空均考查形式主語。
【分析】最佳答案是C,第一空填形式主語,真正的主語是其后的不定式 to play with fire。第二空填 what,what is difficult 是主語從句,注意 what is difficult 后的謂語動(dòng)詞 is。請(qǐng)做以下類似試題:

【陷阱】幾個(gè)干擾項(xiàng)均有可能誤選。
【分析】最佳答案是C,因?yàn)樵谕ǔG闆r下,like 是及物動(dòng)詞,其后應(yīng)有賓語(句中 it 即為其賓語)。句中的 when 從句不是賓語從句,而是時(shí)間狀語從句,其中的 when 的意思是“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候”。其實(shí),也有的詞典將 I don't like it when (if) … 作為一個(gè)句型來處理。能這樣用的動(dòng)詞不多,主要的有enjoy, like, dislike, love, hate, prefer, appreciate等表示喜好的動(dòng)詞。

He hates it when people use his bike. 他討厭別人用他的自行車。

【陷阱】幾個(gè)干擾項(xiàng)均有可能誤選。
【分析】最佳答案是A。it 為形式賓語,真正的賓語是空格后that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。see to 意為“負(fù)責(zé)”、“注意”,其中的 to 為介詞,不宜直接跟that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,遇此情況可借助代詞 it。請(qǐng)做下面兩題,答案也是選 it:
(1) I'll see to _______ that all these letters will be sent to the post before twelve.
A. it??? B. me
C. which??? D. them
