宾语从句用法详解(例句丰富)(下)
二、宾语从句与形式宾语it
当宾语从句后跟有宾语补足语时,通常在宾语从句处使用形式宾语it,而将真正的宾语从句移至句末:

三、连词that的省略问题
引导宾语从句的连词that 通常可以省略:

I promise you (that) I will be there. 我答应你我会去。
I hoped (that) I would / should succeed. 我曾希望我会成功。

【注】有时为了强调,that引导的宾语从句可位于句首,此时that不可省略:
That she is a good girl I know. 她是一个好姑娘,我是知道的。
四、宾语从句与否定转移
当动词think, believe, suppose, expect, imagine 后接一个表示否定意义的宾语从句时,其否定通常转移到主语:
I don’t suppose that it is true. 我认为那不是真的。
I don’t imagine that he will come. 我想他不会来的。(from www.yygrammar.com)
