There be 句型的几种特殊结构及其用法
There be句型是一种应用十分广泛和频繁的句型.但是对there be句型的多变的特点及其特殊结构的复杂性,并不是每个考生都熟悉了解.在大学英语四级考试题中也常常遇到这一句型结构的试题.
例如: Ann never dreams of _________ for her to be sent abroad very soon.(CET-4,1998.6-43)
A)there to be a chance
B)there being a chance
C)there be a chance
D)being a chance 该题的答案为B).
动词 dream of 要求跟 V-ing 分词结构作宾语,更准确地讲是介词of后要求跟 V-ing 分词结构作宾语,there being a chance意为"有一个机会";A)和C)两项均不符合句子结构的要求,所以不是答案选项,而D)项 being a chance 虽然是 V-ing 分词结构,但语义不通,故不能雪
又如: No one had told Smith about ____ a lecture the following day.(CET-4,2001.1-66)
A)there beB)there would be C)there wasD)there being
该题的答案为D).介词 about 后要求跟 V-ing 分词结构作宾语,there being(a lecture)意为"有(一个讲座)",而A)、B)和C)项内容均不符合结构要求,故不能雪再如:
It is fairly common in Africa for there to be an ensemble of expert musicians surrounded by others who join in by clapping,singing,or somehow adding to the totality of musical sound.(CET-4,1995.1)
该句子中出现了for there to be 的结构,如果按照上一题的解题思路去理介词后要求跟 V-ing 分词结构作宾语,那么,这一结构似乎是错的;但是,实际上此结构没有错,此处只能够用 for there to be,而不能用 there being.为什么呢?这就是本文想要解答的问题:there be 句型的特殊结构及其用法.笔者将 there be 句型的几种特殊结构及其用法进行归纳、总结如下,供读者参考.
一、there be句型与各种情态动词连用.
 例如: There must be something wrong here.
There might still be some vacant seats in the rear.
There ought to be something with which to fill your stocking.
