There is a couple of Children这句话对么?为什么?There is a pair of shoes,这句对么?请解释区别.

语法正确的句子是
There ARE a couple of children
There ARE a couple of books
但是
There IS a pair of shoes
There IS a pair of gloves
There IS a pair of socks
There IS a pair of pants
There IS a pair of chopsticks
究竟什么时候用单数动词 IS,什么时候用复数 ARE
基本原则是
1.如果两个物体一般被视为一个单元或当作一个单元来用
（比如 “一双鞋子”,“一条裤子”,“一双筷子”,等等）,用单数 is ,
但如果被视为分开的物体,用复数 are ,
2.如果语境表示这些物体是一个单元,用单数 is ,
否则用复数,例：
There IS a group of people coming tonight
There ARE a group of people arguing over what to have for lunch
上面是根据语法回答,但说实话,
国外很多说英语的人对这点时常不那么注意这个原则.
