【句式仿寫】很顯然這是我的錯。
(It was obvious that)it was my fault.
Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of the old weather,planting in spring and harvest in autumn.大部分古代的節(jié)日常常慶祝寒冷天氣的結(jié)束，春耕以及秋收。

【知識提煉】句子中it作形式主語，其后的從句才是句子的真正主語。it作形式主語，沒有具體意義，而只是幫助把真正的主語移至句子末尾，使句子顯得很穩(wěn)定，能借it移至句子末尾的主語有三種；一種由不定式表示，一種由動名詞表示，一種由從句表示。

Finding that Zhinv was heart-broken是現(xiàn)在分詞短語作原因狀語，表主動動作。主句的主語與v-ing 有邏輯上的助威關(guān)系。
