Answer 1

1、不能代替。it在这里是形式主语，真正的主语是Williams had broken his promise that he would give them a salary rise。这句话的意思是“大家都知道了威廉没有履行给大家涨工资的承诺”。

2、what在这里是指“什么”，是具体的东西，不是形式主语。整个句子的意思是“如果南方赢得了战争，现在的美国可能都已经分裂成许多国家了”。

3、如果他们明天不参加会议不会有太大的事情吧？

4、你想对警方证明什么?
我昨晚在哪里。

5、我坚信他们会做到最好，以及事情会有所改观。

6、这句话是一个同位语从句。that后面所跟的she had passed the entrance examination for high school. 是他父母pleased的内容，是等价的，同位语从句必须用that。

7、在这里是指“你想要什么都可以”

8、字面意思是“不能再好了。”如果要符合中文习惯就这样翻译“再好不过了”

Answer 2

1.不能
那个人没有实现该他们涨工资的承诺（大意）
2.if...what我一般会这么用
如果南部赢了战争，现在的美国将会被分成几个国家
3.如果他们不参加明天的会议会有很大影响么
4.你想让警方明白什么？
昨晚我在哪儿
5.conviced？？？错了吧
6.感觉可以用that...问问老师吧
7.想怎么样都可以
8.没有比这更好的了
