【答案与解析】

1. 选C。one 指 a coat。比较：it = the +名词，one = a+名词，换句话说，it 是特指的，而one 则是泛指的。

2. 选B。it 为形式宾语，真正的宾语是 that he didn’t want to enter politics。

3. 选D。it 为形式主语，此句为 People used to think that the Earth was flat 的被动语态形式。

4. 选B。it 指前面提到的 new house。注意不能选D，因为其前有并列连词but。

5. 选A。it 为形式主语，其后的that从句为主语从句。比较下面一题，答案选B：

_______ is well known, _______ Hong Kong returned to China on July 1st, 1997.

A. It, that                        B. As, /

C. As, as                         D. It, which

6. 选B。it 为形式宾语，真正的宾语是 whether you should do it.

7. 选 D。it doesn’t matter if…, does it matter if… 等为英语常用表达。

8. 选 D。it’s no wonder that… 意为“难怪……”、“……不足为怪”，为英语固定表达，其中的 it’s 也可省略，即只说 No wonder that…。如：

No wonder (that) he didn’t want to go. 难怪他不想去。

9. 选B。it 指环境(from www.nmet168.com)。

10. 选 D。it 为形式宾语，真正的宾语是 that you are too busy to do it.

12. 选 B。it 指 her age。look one’s age 为习语，意为“容貌与年龄相称”。

13. 选C。第一空填 it，为形式主语；第二空填that，用以引导一个同位语从句，修饰 promise。

14. 选 C。it 为形式宾语，真正的宾语是其后的不定式 to send Christmas present to their relatives and friends。
