Therebe句型的用法

There be句型的用法

一、构成：There be ...句型表示的是“某处有(存在)某人或某物”，其结构为There be(is，are，was, were )+名词+地点状语。例如：There are fifty-two students in our class.

There is a pencil in my pencil-case.

There was an old house by the river five years ago.

二、各种句式：

否定句：There be句型否定句式的构成和含有be动词的其它句型一样，在be后加上“not”。也可用“no”来表示。即：no + n.（名词）= not a\an\any + n.（名词）。注意：no + n.（可数名词单数）= not a\an + n.（可数名词单数）；no + n.（可数名词复数）= not any + n.（可数名词复数）；no + n.（不可数名词）= not any + n.（不可数名词）。例如：

There is an orange in her bag.

→There isn’t an orange in her bag.

→There is no orange in her bag.

There are some oranges in her bag.

→There aren’t any oranges in her bag.

→There are no oranges in her bag.

There is some juice in the bottle.

→There isn’t any juice in the bottle.

→There is no juice in the bottle.

一般疑问句：There be结构的一般疑问句变化只需把be动词移到句首，再在句尾加上问号即可。例如：

There is some money in her handbag.

→Is there any money in her handbag? (疑问句和否定句中，some 改为any, something改为anything.)

There is something new in today’s newspaper.

→There isn’t anything new in today’s newspaper.

→Is there anything new in today’s newspaper?

特殊疑问句：

There be句型的特殊疑问句有以下三种形式：

①对主语提问：当主语是人时，用“Who’s + 介词短语?”；当主语是物时，用“What’s + 介词短语?”。其中there在口语中常常省略。注意：无论原句的主语是单数还是复数，对其提问时一般都用be的单数形式(回答时却要根据实际情况来决定)。如：

There is a bird in the tree. →Wha t’s in the tree?

There are some bikes over there. →What’s over there?

There is a little girl in the room. →Who is in the room?

②对地点状语提问：用“Where is \ are + 主语?”表示（注意其答语变化）：例如：

There is a computer in my office.

→Where is the computer? ----It’s in my o ffice.

There are four children in the classroom.

→Where are the four children?—They’ re in the classroom.

③对数量提问：一般有两种提问方式：

如果主语是可数名词，无论是单数还是复数，都用“How many +可数名词复数+ are there + 介词短语？”表示：

There are twelve months in a year.

→How many months are there in a year?

There is only one book in my bag.

→How many books are there in your bag?

There is a cat in the box.

→How many cats are there in the box?

如果主语是不可数名词，则用“How much + 不可数名词+ is there + 介词短语？”表示：

There is some money in my purse. How much money is there in

your purse?

反意疑问句：There be或There加其它动词，其反意疑问句一律用…there? 例如：

There is a beautiful girl in the garden, isn’t there?

There used to be no school here, used there \did there?

三、注意事项：

1. There be句型中be动词的形式要和其后的主语在人称和数上保持一致。

如果句子的主语是单数的可数名词，或是不可数名词，be动词用“is”“was”。例如：

There is a basketball in the box.

There is a little milk in the glass.

如果句子的主语是复数名词，be动词就用“are”“were”。例如：There are many birds in the tree.

There were many people in the street yesterday.

如果有两个或两个以上的名词作主语，be动词要和最靠近它的那个主语在数上保持一致，也就是我们常说的“就近原则”。例如：There is an orange and some bananas in the basket.

There are some bananas and an orange in the basket.

2. There与be中间可插入一些表推测的情态动词、表时态的短语和一些动词短语(如和将来时be going to\ will、现在完成时have\has + pp. 、used to结构等连用，注意其构成形式,这一内容在我们日常练习中经常出现错误,是一难点,也是历年中考试题中的一个考点.)。例如：There must be a pen in the box.

There happened to be some money in my pocket.

There is going to be a meeting tonight.

There has been a big tree on the top of the hill.

There used to be a church across from the bank.
