1、There be 句型中的be 應(yīng)和其后出現(xiàn)的補(bǔ)充

　　語(yǔ)在數(shù)上一致，即“就近原則”，如：

　　There is a lamp on the table.

　　There are some apples in the bowl.

　　2、如果補(bǔ)語(yǔ)是復(fù)數(shù)名詞，卻表示一筆金額或一個(gè)總數(shù)或表達(dá)一個(gè)單個(gè)概念時(shí)，則仍用單數(shù)be形式，如：

　　There is five hundred dollars to pay.

　　There is still another 20 miles to drive.

　　3、There be 中的be 有時(shí)可以是lie,stand,used to be,seem to be,appear to be 等，如：

　　There lies a river to the south.

　　There lived an old man in the small house.

　　4、There is(was)+not +doing結(jié)構(gòu)相當(dāng)于It is(was) impossible to +動(dòng)詞原形，如：

　　There is not going home. =It is impossible to go home.

　　There is not living with him.=It is impossible to live with him. 。
