8.选［A］。本题重点考查对介词的掌握。当下定义或解释某种事物时，常用介词by，构成By ... is meant或者By ..., it is meant ...。
答：以上是2001年全国硕巧升毁士研究生入学统一考试英语试题 的原题及答案讲解。总觉得句子中少了个主语it, 否则by this is meant that-从句就没有了主语。这个主语能省略吗？不是很肯定。
其实这个it是形式主语，真主是that从句。by this是介词短语作状语。没有it可以看作是倒装句，that-从句是主语，因太长而后置。有笑滑了it,则不是倒装句，it是形式主语，that-从句是真正的主语。题句应该没有问孝备题。
