The sentence is:
There is a mountain and a lake.
I thought this sentence was wrong. But I was told it is correct. I just, I don't know. Shouldn't it be "are"? Why is "is" correct? Thanks in advance. :)

1@Araucaria That's why I asked, it isn't duplicate. I looked that question but I couldn't get my answer. – agcgn Oct 17 '15 at 05:45
