Latihan Soal Materi There Is dan There Are Bahasa Inggris SMP

Dalam ungkapan sehari- hari, kadang -kadang kita menyatakan keberadaan dari sesuatu apakah orang atau benda. Untuk menyatakan sesuatu keberadaan sesuatu (ada dan tidak ada) dalam bahasa Inggris adalah dengan menggunakan expletive there. There diikuti oleh bentuk be (is/ are, was, were) plus kata benda yang mewakili an indefinite person ( orang yang tidak tentu) atau sesuatu (things). There biasanya diletakkan sebelum verb be dan kata bendanya diletakkan setelah be



** Bentuk be tergantung pada benda yang mengikutinya apakah singular atau plural.

Contoh :

  • There is someone in front of the door. (Ada orang di depan pintu) --- bentuk singular
  • There is a teacher in the class. ( Ada seorang guru di dalam kelas) --- bentuk singular
  • There are students in the class. ( Ada siswa- siswa di dalam kelas) --- bentuk plural
  • There is something wrong. ( Ada sesuatu yang tidak beres) --- bentuk singular

Untuk kalimat negatf, tambahkan not setelah bentuk "be" nya, sedangkan untuk kalimat tanya, Be diletakkan pada awal kalimat.

=========================

Singular

There is  ... (There's)
There  is not ...  (There isn't)
Is there ...?

=========================

Plural

There are ... 
There are not ... (There aren't ...)
Are there ...?

=========================

Contoh :

  • The class is very quiet. There are not many students there.
  • There is not a super mall in this city.
  • Is there a bank near here?
Tips : Perhatikan bentuk "be" yang digunakan pada benda yang bersifat uncountable (tidak dapat dihitung) seperti sand, oil, sugar, salt, dll. Pada benda- benda tersebut, bentuk be nya adalah selalu singular.
