Going there so early is no use. That he did not come at all is strange. 上述结构远不如用先行it结构普通。此外，也并非所有先行it结构都可作上述转换。如： It seems that John is not coming after all. 似乎约翰终竟不来。 It happened that John was the only witness. 碰巧约翰是唯一的证人。 上述两例只能转换为： John doesn’t seem to be coming after all. John happened to be the only witness.
