在英语里表示什么地方或时间存在什么事情就用此结构，句子的结尾往往带有地点状语或时间状语。其中there是引导词，本身没有词意，be是谓语动词，be后面的名词是主语。be的数与后面的名词一致，若be后是两个或多个并列的名词，be则与靠得最近的那个名词的数一致。如：

Today is the April Fool 's Day .if whoever fools you, you may not be unhappy.
When the bell rang, i went to the classroom and wanted to give the first lesson.
i found the classroom was empty, all students were not in it.they all were sitting
in the next door room.
after class ,i received a massage: "beauty, where are you? i want to treat you

I really can't describe the feeling, all I can say it is wonderful. We can't please other people to like us no matter what but if you try to talk to our God even just a couple of minutes, somehow our burden is lessen.
