高一英语语法惯用法:sb is easy / difficult to do sth吗  请看下面一题:   He is _________ to win the match.
Really?
But I dont think so   A.
easy B.
difficult C.
possible D.
sure   【分析】此题应选D,其余三项均有可能误选,因为假若单纯从中文意思来看,其余三个答案均说得通。
但问题是将A、B、C三项填入空格处均不合英语习惯。
按英语习惯,easy 和difficult 后接不定式时,其主语(或逻辑主语)通常应是 it,而不能是具体的人或物,除非这个主语与其后不定式有动宾关系。
如:   我做这工作很容易。
  误:Im very easy to do the work.
  正:It is very easy for me to do the work.
(用形式主语 it 作主语)   正:The work is very easy for me to do.
(主语为具体的事物,但它与其后不定式有动宾关系,即 to do the work)   我们很难准时赶到那儿。
  误:We are very difficult to get there in time.
  正:It is very difficult for us to get there in time.
(用形式主语 it 作主语)   比较:He is very difficult to work with.
他这个人很难相处。
(用具体的人作主语,但它与其后不定式具有动宾关系,即 to work with him)   有时不是用 it 作形式主语,而是用其作形式宾语。
如:   We found it easy to do the work.
我们发现做这工作很容易。
  但是不说:We found him easy to do work.
  至于,possible 后接不定式时,其主语只能是 it,不能是具体的人或事物,即使该主语与其后的不定式有动宾关系也遥以。
如:   我们有可能会找到一些更遥的。
  误:We are possible to find some cheaper ones.
  误:Some cheaper ones are possible for us to find.
  正:It is possible for us to find some cheaper ones.
  有时不是用 it 作形式主语,而是用其作形式宾语。
如:   We found it possible for him to do the work.
我们发现他可能做那工作。
  但不说:We found him possible to do the work.
