主語從句
主語從句在句中做主語。它可以放在主句謂語動(dòng)詞之前，但多數(shù)情況由it作形式主語。而把主語從句放在主句之后。
按引導(dǎo)詞的不同，主語從句可分為下面三類：
1.由從屬連詞引導(dǎo)
So whether life will continue on the earth for millons of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.(p26)
2.由連接代詞引導(dǎo)

(What is even more important)is that as the earth cooled down,water began to appear on its surface.(p26)

(Where the meeting will be held)hasn't been decided.
(However you do it)is all right with me.

2)在it is pity,it is a shame,it is strange/surprising,it is no wonder,it is necessary/essential/important等結(jié)構(gòu)后的主語從句中謂語動(dòng)詞常采用虛擬語氣形式“(should)=V原（或完成形式）”，表示遺憾，驚奇，重要等作用
(It is a strange that)he should have failed to see his own shortcomings.
It's amazing(how much pleasure you get out of the simple things in life)...(Unit 3 p 22)
(It is a great pity that)he should be so greedy.
3)由wh-系列引導(dǎo)詞引導(dǎo)的從句也用it作形式主語
