第二周:There be 句型
来源:田瀚博 2024 考研作文课程第二周
核心理念:There be 表”客观存在”,不是”拥有”。
There be 句型基础
There be vs have
| 句型 | 语义 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| There be | 客观存在(有) | There is a school with many teachers. |
| have | 拥有关系(财产/所属) | I have a car. |
常见错误
学校不”拥有”教师,教师只是在学校工作。
- ❌ This school has many teachers.
- ✅ There is a school with many teachers.
There be 是完整句子
There be + 名词 本身就是完整句子,不能用逗号直接拼另一句。
| 错误 | 正确 |
|---|---|
| There is a book*,** I like it.* | There is a book, but I like it. |
| There is a book*, however,** I like it.* | There is a book, but I like it. |
however 不能连接两句话
however是副词不是连词,不能像but那样连接两个分句。要用 however 必须拆成两句或加分号:
- There is a book**;** however, I like it.
There be 后接定语的六种形式
There be + 定语 + 名词 + 定语,定语可前置可后置。
| 定语类型 | 示例 |
|---|---|
| 形容词 | There is a book interesting in some aspects. |
| 定语从句 | There is a book that is useful. |
| 介词短语 | There is a book in my school. |
| 非谓语动词 | There is a book making me happy. |
| 同位语 | There is a book, a tool that is useful. |
| 动词不定式 | There is an effort to make this happen. |
同位语从句 vs 定语从句
- 同位语从句:解释名词内容,
that不充当成分。如 There is an idea that I can play soccer.(idea 的内容就是踢球)- 定语从句:修饰名词特征,
that充当主语/宾语。如 There is a book that is useful.(that 作从句主语)
There be 的变形
时态变化:
- There was a book…(过去)
- There will be a book…(将来)
- There is going to be a better book.
系动词替换(be 可换其他系动词):
- There becomes a better book.
- There remains a problem.
- There seems to be…
here be:与 there be 语义相同,仅方位不同。
