There's a letter for you. It's from overseas. It + be for distance (It's 2 km from here to the city centre.), temperature (It's hot in here.), time (It's one o'clock.), weather (It's sunny today.) and in expressions such as: it seems/ appears that, it looks like, it doesn't matter, etc (It seems that the bus is late.) b) 6.2.5.1 Fill in it or there. 1 .......... is a nice playground in the park, but .......... is reaily crowded in the afternoons. 2 seems that we've missed our bus.

In my language, Russian, we also have similar structures with impersonal sentences using the words "есть" (there is/there are) and "есть/нет" (there is/there isn't). For example, "В парке есть красивая площадка" (There is a beautiful playground in the park) and "Здесь нет автобусной остановки" (There is no bus stop here). We can also use "это" (it) to refer to certain situations or conditions, such as "Это горячо здесь" (It's hot here) or "Это выглядит интересно" (It looks interesting).
