什么是 there be 句型
there be 句型用来表示"某处有某物"。它和 have/has 不同:have 表示"某人拥有",there be 表示"某处存在"。
对比:
- I have a book. 我有一本书。(我拥有)
- There is a book on the desk. 桌上有本书。(存在)
一、肯定句
结构:There is/are + 名词 + 地点
- There is a pencil in the bag. 包里有一支铅笔
- There are two cats under the table. 桌下有两只猫
- There is some milk in the glass. 杯子里有一些牛奶
规则:
- 单数名词或不可数名词 → There is
- 复数名词 → There are
二、否定句
结构:There is/are + not + 名词 + 地点
- There is not a book on the desk. 桌上没有书
- There are not any students in the classroom. 教室里没有学生
缩写:is not = isn’t, are not = aren’t
也可以写成:
- There is no book on the desk.
- There are no students in the classroom.
三、一般疑问句
结构:Is/Are + there + 名词 + 地点?
- Is there a pen in your bag? 你包里有一支笔吗
- Are there any apples on the table? 桌上有苹果吗
回答:
- Yes, there is. / No, there isn’t.
- Yes, there are. / No, there aren’t.
四、就近原则
如果 there be 后面跟了多个名词,be 动词用 is 还是 are,由最靠近它的名词决定。
例子:
- There is a pen and two books on the desk.(a pen 是单数 → is)
- There are two books and a pen on the desk.(two books 是复数 → are)
这个规则很重要,考试经常考。
五、there be 和 have 的区别
| there be | have/has |
|---|---|
| 表示"某处存在某物" | 表示"某人拥有某物" |
| There is a car in the yard. | I have a car. |
| 主语是地点 | 主语是人 |
常见错误: ❌ There have a book on the desk. ✅ There is a book on the desk.
六、there be 的各种时态
- 一般现在时:There is / There are
- 一般过去时:There was / There were
- 一般将来时:There will be / There is going to be
例子:
- There was a tree here before. 这里以前有一棵树
- There will be a test tomorrow. 明天有一场考试
七、常见错误
- there be 和 have 混用
- 忘记就近原则
- There is 后面跟了复数名词
- 否定句忘记加 not
- 疑问句忘记把 is/are 提前
常见问题
there is 和 it is 有什么区别?
there is 表示"存在",强调的是有某物;it is 表示"它是",强调的是某物的身份。There is a dog. → 有一条狗。(存在)It is a dog. → 它是一条狗。(身份)
some 和 any 在 there be 里怎么用?
肯定句里用 some:There are some apples. 否定句和疑问句里用 any:There aren’t any apples. / Are there any apples?
there be 后面可以跟动词吗?
不能直接跟动词原形。如果想表达"有某人在做某事",用 there is/are + 名词 + doing。例如:There is a bird singing in the tree.
