英语Therebe句型的用法大全

⼀、基本⽤法

There be 句型是英语中最为常⽤的句型之⼀， 主要⽤来表⽰“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。be后的名词是句⼦的主语。其基本⽤法结构为：

There be+名词主语（⼈或物）+地点

其中，be的形式随着后⾯的名词时单数还是复数⽽变化，即：当be后⾯接的是单数可数名词，则采⽤is；当be后⾯接的是复数可数名词，则采⽤are。如：

There is a man under the tree.There are some apples on the table.

【注意】1、否定句

There be的否定句⼀般是直接在be后加not，not可以缩略为't。如果原句中还有some，⼀般要改为any。如：

There isn't a man under the tree.There aren't any apples on the table.

还有⼀种否定表达⽅式是通过no来表达，此时的no相当于not...any。如：

There is no water in the bottle.There isn't any water in the bottle.There are no pictures on the wall.There aren't any pictures on the wall.

2、⼀般疑问句

There be句型要改为⼀般疑问句，只要把be提到句⾸即可。其肯定回答为：Yes, thereis/are，否定回答为：No, there isn't/aren't。如果原句中含有some，也要改为any。如：- Is there a man under the tree?- Yes, there is. / No, there isn't.- Are there any apples on the table?- Yes, there are. / No, there aren't.

3、特殊疑问句

There be 句型的特殊疑问句主要有how many和how much做引导词两种情况。如：

There are five thousand students in our school. （就five thousand提问）How many students are there in your school?There is a little money in my wallet. （就a little提问）How much money is there in your wallet?

4、反义疑问句

There be的反义疑问句⼀般是以be作为反义疑问部分的助动词来⽤，它也遵循“前肯后否、前否后肯”的原则。如：

There is a cup on the table, isn't there?

该句前半句为肯定句，所以反义疑问句部分要采⽤否定的isn't。

There is no juice left in the bottle, is there?

该句前半句为否定句，所以反义疑问句部分要采⽤肯定的is。

⼆、主谓⼀致

1、不可数名词作主语

当be后接的是不可数名词时，be要采⽤is；当其后接的是由表量的名词的复数所连接的不可数名词时，be要采⽤are。如：

There is some bread on the plate.

There are three pieces of bread on the plate.

2、就近原则

如果There be 后⾯是⼏个并列名词时，动词be的形式和最靠近它的那个名词保持数的⼀致。如：

There is an apple, two plates and five bowls on the table.There are two plates, an apple and five bowls on the table.

三、时态变化

There be 句型中的be可以有⼀般现在时、⼀般过去时、将来时和完成时的变化。如：

There are some people talking loudly in the reading room.There was a car race in the town last year.There will be a meeting next Friday.

There has been a great increase in population in the city in the past fiveyears.

四、与情态动词的连⽤

There be句型也可以与情态动词连⽤。其基本⽤法结构为：There+情态动词+be+名词主语

+其他成分。如：

There may be a great exhibition in Shanghai next year.There must be some cakes left in the box.There used to be a hospital there before the war.

五、各种句型中的There be

There be句型也可以和be going to 、seem to 、appear to 、used to、be likely to 、happen to等常⽤句型连⽤。其基本⽤法结构为：There+特殊句型+be+名词主语+其他成分。如：

There seem to be a big difference between the twins.There is going to be a film in the village tonight.There is likely to be a snowstorm.There happened to be a man nearby.

There appeared to have been a tragic accident last week.

六、与其它动词的连⽤

There be句型中的be有时会被替换为其他⾏为动词。如：

There came a breeze that his wife had eloped with her lover. （有谣⾔说他妻⼦与她情⼈私奔了。）

Once upon a time, there lived a princess who was very beautiful. （从前，有⼀位⾮常美丽的公主。）

七、与have的区别

There be和have都可以表⽰“有”的意思，此时两者的⽤法可以相互转化。如：

There are many small rivers in the ancient town.The ancient town has many small rivers.

但是，只有There be能够⽤来表存在，侧重表达某地有某物，⽽have没有此⽤法。如：

There are some trees in front of the house.

这句话中的There are就⽆法转化为have的⽤法。

⼋、There be的⾮谓语动词⽤法

There be 结构的⾮谓语动词形式是there to be 和there being 两种形式。在句中作主语、宾语和状语。1、作主语

There being a bus stop near my house is a great advantage. （我家旁边有个公共汽车站，很是⽅便。）

2. 作宾语

there to be可以⽤作expect、like、mean、intend、want、prefer等动词的复合宾语。如：

I expect there to be no argument about this. （我期望关于这件事不要再争吵了。）

People don't want there to be another war. （⼈们不希望再有战争了。）

有时也会⽤作介词的宾语，其形式⼀般为there being。如：

I never dreamed of there being any good chance for me. （我做梦也没想到我会有好机会。）

3、作状语

作状语时，通常采⽤“there being”结构。如：

There being no one to help me, I had to do it all alone. （因为没有⼈帮助我，我不得不独⽴完成这项⼯作。）
