there be句型结构

Answer 1

there be句型结构：there be +人或物+地点

There be 句型是英语中常用句型， 意思是“有”，表示“人或事物的存在”或“某地有某物”。There在此结构中是引导词，已经没有副词“那里”的含义。There be 句型的构成形式一般为“There is/are + 某物/人 +某地/时”，表示某地/时有某物/人。

疑问句形式是将be或will/have/can/must等助动词、情态动词提至there之前，否定形式则直接在be或助动词、情态动词后加not，因此要表达“某个地方或某个时间存在什么事物或人”的时候常用“There be + 名词+ 地点（时间）这一句型。

1、There be 句型中的be 应和其后出现的补充语在单复数上保持一致，即“就近原则”，如：

There is a lamp on the table.

There are some apples in the bowl.

There are five books,two pens and a ruler in the school bag.

There is a ruler,two pens and five books in the school bag.

2、如果主语是复数名词，却表示一笔金额或一个总数或表达一个单个概念时，则仍用单数be形式，如：

There is five hundred dollars to pay.

There is still another 20 miles to drive.

There is duck and green vegetables for supper.
