1)英語中的There be 結(jié)構(gòu)意思是“有”,表示在某地或某時有某人或某物。There be 結(jié)構(gòu)強調(diào)的是“存在關(guān)系”。There be 結(jié)構(gòu)中的be具有時態(tài)變化(is, are, was, were). There be后接的如果是單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞時,be只能是單數(shù)形式is或was;如:There is a book on the desk. There was some milk in the bottle yesterday. 如:There be后接的如果是復(fù)數(shù)可數(shù)名詞時,一定要用復(fù)數(shù)形式are 或were。There are some books on the desk. There were some books on the desk yesterday.
2)在英語中表示“有”這一概念除了there be結(jié)構(gòu)以外,還有have/ has。它們的用法區(qū)別:have/ has表示“某物歸某人所有”,強調(diào)所屬關(guān)系,而there be指“在某地或某時有某人或某物”,強調(diào)存在關(guān)系。比較:There is a bus in our school.(只表示存在,bus不一定屬于學(xué)校)
Our school has a bus.(表示我們學(xué)校擁有bus這一財產(chǎn)).考查there be 句型的常見題型有單項填空、完型填空、句型轉(zhuǎn)換和改錯等。做這類題時,必須首先認(rèn)真理解全句的意思,看是表示“存在”的“有”還是“擁有”來決定是否用 there be還是用其他句型。
3)There be可以有現(xiàn)在時(there is/are)、過去時(there was/were)、將來時(there is/are going to be或there will be)和完成時(there have/has been);還可用there must be ,there can‘t be, there used to be等
4)反意疑問句的構(gòu)成:be (not) there?
5)主謂一致:There be 結(jié)構(gòu)中的be動詞要和后面所跟名詞保持一致,遵循就近原則。
注意:
1.句型中含有some時,變?yōu)榉穸ň洹⒁蓡柧鋾r一般要改為any。
2.對數(shù)量提問:How many +可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù) + are there +…?
How much +不可數(shù)名詞 + is there +…?
3.對句中 sth.部分提問一般用What’s +地點狀語?有時也用What‘s there +地點狀語?
4.there be 句型中有時不用動詞be ,而用come , live ,stand , lie, seem to be , happen to be ,等
