　　（一）什么是形式主语

　　实例3：Clearly，; rush; hours; emerges; in; the; early; morning; as; well; as; ; early; evening; which; is; most; busy/the; busiest; in; a; day; as; a; whole; in; London.

　　修改建议：这个句子的结构应该是无可厚非的，但是，按照雅思评分的标准，句式稍微做一下调整，会更漂亮： 如：It; is; clear; that; rush; hours; emerge; in; the; early; morning; as; well; as; in; the; early; evening; which; is; most; busy/the; busiest; in; a; day; as; a; whole; in; London. 或者改成 It; is; demonstrated; that; rush; hours; emerge; in; the; early; morning; as; well; as; in; the; early; evening; which; is; most; busy/the; busiest; in; a; day; as; a; whole; in; London. 这样一个小小的调整，其句子修改前后的效果是显而易见的。

　　（三）it作形式主语的特征分析　　

　　根据以上对it作形式主语的句型结构的解析，对雅思写作范文、尤其是官方考官范文的分析，以及对学生写作过程中出现的it使用状况的详细解读可知： 相比较于名词性从句、定语从句、状语从句的复杂性和多边性，it作为形式主语的句式结构可谓简明扼要，学生掌握起来应该说是得心应手的。

　　（四）不能正确使用it形式主语的原因　　

　　在信息编排时，英语句子遵循 focus的原则，即旧信息在前，新信息在后 information+new; information 但是，当句子主语结构较长，容易使句子产生 weight的感觉时， 句子结构则遵循 weight的原则，即，把较长的主语全部置于句子尾部。前面空掉的主语位置用it来代替，担当形式主语的功能。

　　而汉语并不具有这类明显的特征，学生对英汉两种语言结构差异知之甚少，或者略有所知，在真正的运用中，也未必能够正确的体现出来。多数学生都本着汉语式的思维，一遇到某人做某事是怎么样的/是什么就习惯性地写成t

　　三、总结；　　

　　建议学生在雅思学习中，采取步步为营的四步走战略战术，循序渐进：首先，记住句型结构; 其次，模仿写作; 之后，进行独立创作; 最后，形成属于自己的 模板句型。作为雅思写作学习中可控制的因素，我们可以培养句式运用的习惯，使习惯称为自然。为了我们雅思的学习这个努力是值得 的，it; pays; in; the; long; run.
