No one had told him about there being a lecture the followin

我给你说个清楚详细的：
There+be是一种常见的“表示存在”的句型.There+be后可接名词或动名词.
There must be rules for the changes.这些变化一定是有规则的.
There is no knowing what may happen.谁也不知道将要发生什么事.
下面就there to be 和 there being 的用法做一简要介绍.
1.there to be 的用法
1) 用作动词的复合宾语.
Would you like there to be a picture on the wall?你喜欢墙壁上挂一张画吗?
We don't want there to bve any commrade lagging behind.我们不希望有一个同志掉队.
I don't want there to bwe any misunderstanding between us.我不希望我们之间有什么误会.
2) 用在It be + adj.for...的结构中
It is impossible for there to be any more chance.不可能在有机会了.
It was too late for there to be any buses.时间太晚,不会有汽车了.
We waited for there to be another opportunity.我们期待着还有下一次机会.
2.there being 的用法
1) 用作介词后的复合宾语
I never dreamed of there being a picture on the wall.我从未想到墙壁上有幅画.
I was wrong about there being some misunderstanding between us.认为我们之间有误解是我的错误.
2) 作状语用的独立结构
There being nothing to do,we went home.因为没有什么事要办,我们就回家了.
There being nobody else at hand,I had to do it by myself.由于身边没有别人,我只得自己干了

因为前面有介词about，它的后面应该跟动名词
比如：I talked about leaving the city with him.
原句中，about后面应该跟being，但是因为用there be句型，就变成about there being了

因为前面有介词about或of，它的后面应该跟动名词。
但如果是for，后面就要用不定式
嘿嘿，昨天做题刚看到的一个语法点

keyi

因为前面有个介词about，后面的动词要用ing形式，所以用being
比如说：No one can imagine there to be dinosaur again.没有人能想象恐龙再次出现。
这种句子主要看动词是什么。
