语法知识There be 句型 更新于:2024-01-10 07:21:39

在说明或询问人或物等的存在时可用 there be 结构 。There be 其实是“be there 的倒装”: A girl  is there in the classroom.  → There is a girl in the classroom. 表客观存在(有)。用于强调、陈述事实或介绍场景。

There be + n.+介词短语 (出现频率 90%)

一般现在时一般过去时
  • There is a girl in the classroom.
  • There is still some honesty in this world.
  • There’s a bus coming, but it’s full. (There be + n. + doing)
  • There is a girl crying in the classroom. (There be + n. + doing + 介词短语)
  • There’s a man at the door. It’s the postman. 用 it 或人称代词作进一步说明

it 作为“虚主语”表示时间、距离、天气等概念时,不能用 there be 结构(因为不能还原为 be there)
