e.g. His second movie is less interesting.
他的第二部電影就沒那么有趣。
Language points

directly.
情態(tài)動詞might 表達(dá)一種可能性及推
測的不確定性, 意思與表達(dá)可能性
的may相當(dāng), 表示“有可能, 也許
會”, 但語氣更加委婉, 更不確定。
e.g. He might come, but it’s very unlikely.
他也許會來，但非常靠不住。
3. However, it is important to learn how to use the right language in different situations.
it作形式主語
【梳理】
在英語中, 如果主語是較長的動詞不定式或一個句子, 為了保持句子結(jié)構(gòu)的平衡, 避免頭重腳輕, 通常用it作形式主語放在句首, 而把真正的主語放在句尾。
常見的句型有：
1) It is + adj. (+ ____ + sb.) + to do sth.。常用于此句型的形容詞有important, difficult, dangerous, necessary, useful, possible等, 用來對to do sth. 進(jìn)行說明。如：
It’s difficult for us to finish the work in an hour.
for
2) It is + adj. + ____ + sb. + to do sth.
常用于此句型的形容詞有g(shù)ood, kind,
nice, clever, wise等, 用來對sb.的性格、品質(zhì)等進(jìn)行說明。
如：
It’s kind of you to say so.
of
請根據(jù)漢語意思完成下列英語句子（每空一詞）。
對他來說，回答那個問題是十分困難的。
It’s very hard ____ him ____ _______that question.
2. 你這樣說真是太好了。
It’s very kind ____ you ____ ____ so.
for
to answer
of
to say
