同學們,你們都認識There is和There are哥倆兒吧?最近他們可是煩惱多多。為什么呢?原來,他們都可以表示“在某地有某人或某物”,又都喜歡站在句首,因此總有一些同學把他們給搞錯了。今天啊,他們想要告訴大家:他倆確實都來自There be家族,但個性卻不盡相同。到底有什么區別呢?請聽聽他們的自我介紹吧。
There is
我平時喜歡和單數名詞及不可數名詞交朋友。瞧:
There is a big box on the table.
There is some milk in the glass.
There are
我只愿意與復數名詞為伴??矗?/p>
There are lots of books in the library.
如果要變成一般疑問句,只要把咱們的be動詞(is或are)請到最前面就可以了。如:
-Is there a music room in your school?
-Yes,there is.
-Are there any pictues on the wall?
-No,there arent.
當表示“在某地沒有某人或某物”時,咱們的朋友not就會主動來幫忙。謙虛的not總是挨在俺哥倆兒的后面。瞧:
There is not (isnt) a football on the playground.
There are not (arent) any chairs in the classroom.
友情提示
我們There be家族里一般實行的是“就近原則”,即:使用There is還是There are,由離他最近的那個名詞來決定。如:
There is a pen and two books on the desk.
There are two books and a pen on the desk.
同學們,現在明白了吧?下回再見到俺哥倆兒時,可別再認錯嘍!
