It lies in the south of the city.   place

It is obvious that the water was to blame.
It is true that he will treat me for breakfast tomorrow.
It is certain that our class will do a good job in the final exam.
Is it possible that he will become the chairman of our country?
It is amazing that at my age I still look like a student!
分析：it是形式主語(yǔ)，句子真正的主語(yǔ)時(shí)that 引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句。
牢記以下常用于該句型的形容詞
It is clear/obvious/true/possibly/certain/amazing/ridiculous等+that從句
思考：為什么要用it 做形式主語(yǔ)而把真正主語(yǔ)放到后面去？
遵循英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法的尾重原則，避免句子頭重腳輕。
The use of"it"
一、用作人稱代詞，代表前面提到的人或事物
1)Who's it? (It's )me.
2)Look at the picture.(It)is a picture of our school.
二、用于代替指示代詞this和that
-Is this jacket yours?
-Yes,(it)is.
三、用以表示時(shí)間、距離、天氣、氣候、季節(jié)、環(huán)境等
1)It is half past eight now.  Time
2)It's only half an hour's walk from here to our school. Distance
3)I hope that it will be fine tomorrow.   Weather
4)It had rained much this year.    Weather
5)It's spring now.   Season
6)It's quiet here.  Circumstance
四、it用作形式主語(yǔ)
替代作主語(yǔ)的從句、動(dòng)詞不定式、動(dòng)名詞、而把真正作主語(yǔ)的從句、動(dòng)詞不定式、動(dòng)名詞置于句尾。
1.代作主語(yǔ)的動(dòng)詞不定式
1)It be adj.(for sb.)to do sth.
此處adj. 通常為描述事件的形容詞：
easy,difficult,hard,necessary,unnecessary,possible,impossible,likely,unlikely,right,wrong,important,unimportant,legal,illegal,well-mannered,polite,impolite,clear,obvious,certain,suitable,proper,fit,useful,useless,dangerous....
2)It be adj. of sb. to do sth.
此處adj.通常為描述人的形容詞：
kind,unkind,nice,rude,cruel,considerate,thoughtful,thoughtless,careful,careless,silly,foolish,stupid,clever,wise,crazy
3)It替代作主語(yǔ)的動(dòng)名詞的常見(jiàn)句型
It's no good/use doing....
It's (well) worth doing...
It's (well) worth one's while doing/to do.....
It's (well) worth while doing/to do
It's no use crying over spilt milk.
2.it作形式主語(yǔ)替代主語(yǔ)從句
①I(mǎi)t is adj.+clause
It is clear(obvious,true,possible,certain...)that
該句型中it是形式主語(yǔ)，真正的主語(yǔ)是that引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句，常譯為“清楚（顯然，真的...）”，是主語(yǔ)從句最常見(jiàn)的一種結(jié)構(gòu)
It is very clear that he's round and tall like a tree.
②It is v-ed that...=sb./sth is to do
It is said (reported/learned/believed/thought/known/told/hoped...)that...
該句型中的it仍是形式主語(yǔ)，真正主語(yǔ)是that引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句；該結(jié)構(gòu)常譯為“據(jù)（據(jù)報(bào)道，據(jù)悉....）”。
It is said that he has come to Beijing.
It is reported that another earth satellite has been put into orbit.
③It is + noun +從句
It is a pity(a shame/an honor/a good thing/a fact/a surprise/...)that...
該句型中，that后的從句一般用虛擬語(yǔ)氣（should+動(dòng)詞原形），should 可省去。表示出乎意料，常譯為“竟然”。沒(méi)有這種意義時(shí)，則不用虛擬語(yǔ)氣。如：
五、it作形式賓語(yǔ)
當(dāng)符合賓語(yǔ)中的賓語(yǔ)是不定式、動(dòng)名詞賓語(yǔ)從句時(shí)，往往把賓語(yǔ)放在它的補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)后面，而用it作形式賓語(yǔ)，放在賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)之前。
該句型中的it作形式賓語(yǔ)，常用的動(dòng)詞有think,believe,make,find,consider,feel等。
I think it no use arguing with him.
我認(rèn)為和他爭(zhēng)吵沒(méi)有用。
I found it very interesting to study English.
我發(fā)現(xiàn)學(xué)英語(yǔ)非常有趣。
He made it clear that he was notinterested in this sbuject.
他非常清楚地表示他對(duì)那門(mén)學(xué)科不感興趣。
六、用于強(qiáng)調(diào)句型中
It+be +被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that/who(a person)從句
I met Tom in the park yesterday.
1)It was I who met Tom in the park yesterday.
2)It was Tom who I met in the park yesterday.
3)It was in the park that I met Tom yesterday.
4)It was yesterday that I met Tom in the park.
It was five o'clock when I got home.
It was at five o'clock that I got home.
七、it常用的固定搭配
1.make it
1)在口語(yǔ)當(dāng)中相當(dāng)于succeed,表示：成功、做到、說(shuō)定、趕上、及時(shí)趕到 如：
It's hard to make it to the top in show business.
2)在口語(yǔ)中相當(dāng)于fix the date for,表示“約定好時(shí)間”

相當(dāng)于Don't worry or don't hurry,用來(lái)勸告別人，表示“不要慌，別擔(dān)心，沉住氣”

3.It all depends/that all depends在口語(yǔ)中，相當(dāng)于it hasn't been decided yet,表示“那得看情況，還沒(méi)有定下來(lái)”
