高考英语语法专题复习 二、冠词The Article 知识要点:
冠词是一种虚词,放在名词前,帮助说明名词的含义。冠词分不定冠词(The Indefinite Article)和定冠词(The definite Article)两种。a (an) 是不定冠词,a用在辅音之前; an用在元音之前。the是定冠词。
一、不定冠词
1、指人或事物的某一种类(泛指)。这是不定冠词a (an)的基本用法。如:
She is a girl. I am a teacher. Please pass me an apple. 2、表示数量,有“一”的意思,但数的概念没有one强烈。如: I have a mouth, a nose and two eyes. 3、用在抽象名词前,起具体化的作用。如:
This little girl is a joy to her parents. 这女孩对她父母来说是一个乐趣。
It is a pleasure to talk with you. 跟您交谈真是一件愉快的事情。 It is an honor to me to attend the meeting. 参加这个会,对我来说是一种荣誉。
4、用于某些固定词组中。如:
a bit, a few, a little, a lot of, a piece of, a cup of, a glass of, a pile of, a pair of,
have a good time, for a while, for a long time等。 二、定冠词
1、表示特指的人或物的名词前。这是定冠词the的基本用法。如:The pen on the desk is mine.
2、指谈话双方所默认的人或事物。 3、指上文提过的人或事物(第二次出现)。
4、用在世界上独一无二的事物前。如: the earth, the moon, the sun.
5、用在序数词和形容词最高级前。(副词最高级前的定冠词可省略)如:
He is always the first to come to school. Bob is the tallest in his class.
6、表示某一家人和用在形容词或分词前,表某一类人。如: The Browns are at home to receive visitors today. 布朗一家今天要接待客人。
the poor, the old, the wounded, the living, the dying, the dead, the rich, the sick等。
7、用在某些专有名词(由普通名词构成的专有名词)以及江河湖海、山脉、报刊、杂志、乐器前。如:
the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, the Science Museum, the C hildren’s Palace, the Party等。
the Yellow River, the Pacific Ocean, the Alps, the Himalayas the People’s Daily, the Evening Paper, the Times 泰晤士报。 8、用于表示具体计量的结构中,译成“按/以...计算”,但size,weight, time这类词跟by连用时不加。如:
by
We got paid by the month. 我们按月计酬。 Meat is sold by weight. 肉按重量出售。
9、“动词+sb.+介词+the +身体某一部位”结构中的the不可用物主代词代替。如:
take sb. By the arm 抓住某人的胳膊
An apple fell from the tree and hit him on the head.
10、用在一些习惯用语中。如: on the day, in the morning (afternoon, evening),
the day after tomorrow, the next year, the day before
the
hour/day/week/month/year/dozen/yard/ton/kilo/thousand;
yesterday,by the way等。

1、专有名词和不可数名词前或复数名词泛指一类人或事物时。如: China, America, Grade One, Class Two, milk, oil, water, paper, science等。
We are students. I like reading stories.
2、名词前已有作定语用的this, that, my, your, some, any等代词。如: Go down this street.
3、节日、日期、月份、季节前。如:
Teachers’ Day, Children’s Day, National Day, in summer, in July等。
Today is New Year’s Day. It is Sunday. March 8 is Women’s Day.
4、在称呼语或表示头衔职务的名词前,尤其作表语、宾补时。如: What’s the matter, Granny? Mr. Li is chairman of the meeting.
6、在三餐和球类、学科、棋类运动前。如:
