5)在there be的 be 前还可以加上各种情态词,如:

There ought not to be so many people.不应该有这么多的人。
There might still be hope .可能还有点希望。
二、“There be +主语+不定式”中,不定式可以有主动和被动两种形式,不过在口语中主动形式更为常见。
There is a letter to type/be typed today.
三、There be句式中的be也可以用其它意义的动词或词组取代。它们通常是:lie, live, stand等表示存在或位置的动词;come, go, run, walk等表示运动或方向的动词以及certain to be, sure to be, appear to be, happen to be等词组。这种there存在句的谓语动词的人称、数的形式与主语须保持一致。例如:
1. There lies a river behind the house.
2. In front of the village there flows a stream.
3. There is sure to be a friend of mine in the hotel.
4. There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with the radio.作者: tingroom 时间: 2012-1-13 14:38
