　　【答案與解析】
　　1. 選C。one 指 a coat。比較：it = the +名詞，one = a+名詞，換句話說，it 是特指的，而one 則是泛指的。
　　2. 選B。it 為形式賓語，真正的賓語是 that he didn’t want to enter politics。
　　3. 選D。it 為形式主語，此句為 People used to think that the Earth was flat 的被動語態形式。
　　4. 選B。it 指前面提到的 new house。注意不能選D，因為其前有并列連詞but。
　　5. 選A。it 為形式主語，其后的that從句為主語從句。比較下面一題，答案選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. 選B。it 為形式賓語，真正的賓語是 whether you should do it.
　　7. 選 D。it doesn’t matter if…, does it matter if… 等為英語常用表達。
　　8. 選 D。it’s no wonder that… 意為“難怪……”、“……不足為怪”，為英語固定表達，其中的 it’s 也可省略，即只說 No wonder that…。如：
　　No wonder (that) he didn’t want to go. 難怪他不想去。
　　9. 選B。it 指環境。
　　10. 選 D。it 為形式賓語，真正的賓語是 that you are too busy to do it.
　　12. 選 B。it 指 her age。look one’s age 為習語，意為“容貌與年齡相稱”。
　　13. 選C。第一空填 it，為形式主語；第二空填that，用以引導一個同位語從句，修飾 promise。
　　14. 選 C。it 為形式賓語，真正的賓語是其后的不定式 to send Christmas present to their relatives and friends。
