填空题 1 (据估计到2010年), the population of the world will have reached 7 billion.

  • 1、
【正确答案】 1、It is estimated that by 2010    
【答案解析】[考点] 习惯译法[考频:7]
[解析] “据估计”It is estimated;“到2010年”by 2010。在本句中,It为形式主语,真正的主语是the population... billion,因主语较长,为避免头重脚轻,故将主语放在句尾,并用It代替放在句首。
[语法扩展] 类似It is estimated that这样的表达方式很多,如It is said that,It is reported,It is believed that,It is told that等。
