sentence. a. (preferable) It is certain that we would not be

able to understand Old English today. = (correct) That we would not be able to

understand Old English today is certain.

Empty subject “it”:

(correct) It is difficult to stop smoking.

b. (preferable) Travelling to Beijing takes up a

lot of my time. =

(correct) It takes a lot of my time travelling

to Beijing.

We usually use the empty subject it with

a clause or to-infinitive (preferable), but

with the v-ing form we prefer the real

subject at the beginning.

Tip

2. It can also be used before seem, appear, happen, chance, turn out and prove as the empty subject of a sentence.

a. It seems that he speaks two languages. = He seems to speak two languages.b. It happens that my new neighbour comes

from my home town. = My new neighbor happens to come from my

home town.
