✔ 最佳答案
飛象仔﹐這關乎「可數名詞」和「不可數名詞」的分別。

名詞「homework」是「不可數名詞」。
所以在任何情況下﹐「homework」不可以跟「眾數動詞」連用。
而「a lot of」可以跟「可數名詞」和「不可數名詞」連用。

單從文法來看﹐「There is a lot of homework」是正確﹐
「There are a lot of homework」是錯誤的。

不過﹐「There is a lot of homework」的句意不完整﹐
您應在前文作出補充或者使用另一個方法來表達。例如﹕
I have five pieces of homework to do.

The first one
" There is a lot of homework"
As homework is an uncountable noun.
An uncountable noun can't follow any indefinite articles (That mean " a or an")
And the verb should be singular.
So "There is a lot of homework" is correct

There is a lot of homework is correct.

Since " homework " is uncountable, of course using " is " is correct.
But you can say: " There are 3 pieces of homework ".

There are a lot of homework is correct
Because a lot of homework is "plural" so use "there" are is the correct

There are a lot of homework is correctBecause a lot of homework is ;plural so use there are is the correct
