六、there与其它动词连用
六、there与其它动词连用
除动词be外,其它一些动词也可以与there连用。这些动词有两类:一类是表示存在概念的
状态动词,如:exist,remain,live,lie,stand等;一类是表示某事发生或某人到达等概念的不及物动词,如:come,enter,arise,occur,follow,appear等。例如:
There lies a river behind the house.屋后有一条河。
Then there came a knock at the door.然后听到敲门声。
At a later stage there arose new problems which seemed insoluble.
在后期出现了似乎无法解决的新问题。

《补充:》
以here, there, out , in , up, down, back, off, away, now , then, on 等表示方向,位置或时间的副词开头的句子,谓语是come, go , be, lie,run等动词时,并且其主语是名词时,通常使用完全倒装。
There comes the bus!
There goes the train.
Out ran a little boy.
Now comes your turn.
七、由there be构成的固定句型
由there be构成的一些固定句型在英语中很活跃,需很好地掌握。常见的有:
1)There is no point in +v-ing:没道理,没用,没必要
There is no point in arguing further.再争下去也没用。
2)There is no use/good(in)+v-ing:毫无用处
There is no use hiding that fact from him .对他隐瞒那个事实没什么用
There is no good/use going there.
3)There is no sense in +v-ing:毫无道理 ,没有意义
There was no sense in making a child suffer like that.
让一个孩子受那样的苦是毫无道理的。
4)There is no need to +v:没有必要
There was no need for him to remain in Shanghai.他没有必要再留在上海。
5)There is no +v-ing:不可能,无法(口语)。
Once let this fellow start talking,there was no stopping him.
一旦让这个家伙谈起来,就无法让他停下来了。
There is no telling when he will be back。无法知道他什么时候回来。
There is no knowing what he is doing.无法知道他在做什么
改错:
1、 There will have a class meeting tomorrow afternoon.
2、 There are one third of the students think it necessary to move the zoo.
第一句应该改为There will be a class meeting tomorrow afternoon.
谨记第一条:there be结构与have都可表示“有”的含义,但在意义上have强调“所有”,而there be则强调“存在”,它们的侧重点不同。在be about tothere be句型中be的形式不能用have/has代替。 there不能和have(has)连用。There后无论有多少助动词,做后要落实到be上。再看下一题:
There ___ a talk show on CCTV- 4 at nine this evening.
A. will have B. is going to be C. is going to have D. is having
本题答案是B。这是there be的将来时,be前面多了be going to。
