In the presentation of the famous English-speaking city, the verb 'to be' plays a fundamental role in expressing the identity and current state of the city, as well as the qualities and characteristics of its landmarks, culture, and people. For example, 'The Tower Bridge is an iconic symbol of London, representing its rich history and connection with the world.' Here, 'is' is used to describe the singular subject 'The Tower Bridge' and to attribute the quality of being an 'iconic symbol' to it. Additionally, 'London is a vibrant metropolis with a diverse population.' In this sentence, 'is' is used with the singular subject 'London' to express the quality of being 'vibrant' and the characteristic of having a 'diverse population.' Furthermore, 'The museums in the city are renowned for their extensive collections.' The plural form 'are' is used with the plural subject 'The museums' to convey that they are 'renowned' and to describe the quality of their 'extensive collections.' The verb 'to be' thus helps to clarify the current state and existence of the city's landmarks, culture, and people, while allowing for the expression of their qualities and characteristics, which are integral to the city's identity and character.
