She is a true source of inspiration

Bonjour Pamela, 

This has been asked many times before so if you take a look at the following lesson and the questions and answers at the end of it you will have many examples.

You will almost never have -

elle/il est followed by a noun 

except in very rare cases, some of which are included in the following answer below

It is a very good rule of thumb to always use 'c'est' when followed by an article -

Hope this helps!
