Answer 2

Sure, let's complete the sentences:

1. There is an orange in the bowl. 2. There is a cat on the sofa. 3. There is some cheese on the plate.

In each sentence, "is" is used because you are referring to a single item or a non-countable quantity. If you were talking about multiple oranges, cats, or pieces of cheese, you would use "are." For example:

1. There are oranges in the bowl. 2. There are cats on the sofa. 3. There are some cheeses on the plate.
