If his friends call him to go out,he will do it at once.
老师,不是非常了解代动词 do,它为何要加 it,可以省略吗;do 是及物动词,it=his friends call him to go out.是吗?go out=do, do it 为何不等于go out it.
与do有关的代动词有三种:do, do so, do it/this/that,这三者的使用方法略有不同。
第一,最基本的代动词是do,其基本需要是其代替的谓语不可以含有助动词:
I hated it and Pat did too.
※ He will take the exam and I do too.
这种代动词有一个特征,那就是它几乎极少出目前其它助动词之后,并且出目前助动词之后仅限于英国方言。比较:
常见承认:I havent read it but I will soon.
英国方言:I havent read it but I will do soon.
do so在方方面面像do,但它可以自由出目前助动词之后:
He will do so tomorrow. He may have done so.
有若干种状况,do和do so不可以相互替代:
do so后面不加宾语:I didnt invite Kim, but I did / ※did so Pat.
比较结构:She earns more than I do / ※do so.
表达状况:He liked it; at least he said he did / ※did so.
do不需要于非限定分句:There was no point in doing so / ※doing. To do so / ※do would be pointless. (英国方言可以用)
do后面通常不加状语:She agreed to help, but she did so / ※did reluctantly.
可以用do so的地方,通常都可以用do it,但更不是肯定的。
do it代替的谓语需要是一个主动的行为:He heard a noise and I did so / ※did it too.
有do it to sb.但没do so to sb.:I hope they dont do that / ※do so to me.
依据以上剖析可以看出,If his friends call him to go out,he will do it at once这句话中的do it可以替换为do so,但不可以替换成do,由于它后面跟了状语。
