概念重温
There be 句型是英语中常用句型, 意思是“有”,表示“人或事物的存在”或“某地有某物”。There在此结构中是引导词,已经没有副词“那里”的含义。

基本用法

打搅了,这附近有维修店吗?
There are lots of people there who can actually help you.
在那里,有许多人实际上可以帮助你。

there be +主语的3种形式:

At one time, there were long queues of people waiting outside the CAAC office.
曾经人们在中国民航售票处排队等候。
(注:CAAC=Civil Aviation Administration of China)
There were so many people in the street watching the fire that firefighters couldn't get close to the building.

3. There be+主语+ to do/to be done ,其中不定式与主语通常有逻辑上的动宾关系或主谓关系,不定式表示尚未发生或将要发生的动作:
