  2.冠词的活用情况

  (1)表示世界上独一无二的事物的名词前一般加定冠词the;但如果名词前有修饰语,来表示“怎样的”时也可用不定冠词。如:

  the world, a peaceful world; the moon, a bright moon。

  (2)表示一日三餐的名词前一般不用冠词,但前面如果有定于修饰,也可用不定冠词。如:I had a wonderful supper yesterday。

  (3)表示乐器的名词前一般用定冠词,但如果该名词作为普通名词,也可用不定冠词。如:This is a piano and it is the king of musical instruments。

  (4)形容词最高级前、序数词前也可用不定冠词。

  ①形容词最高级前加不定冠词表示“十分、非常”之意,相当于very。如:

  It is a most useful book。

  ②序数词second、third等前加不定冠词表示“又一,再一”之意,相当于another。如:Can you give me a second chance, please?

  (5)表示语言的前一般不用冠词,但后面如果出现language一词,前面需加定冠词the。如:English=the English language

  (6)牢记高考中常见的纯不可数名词。它们是information, fun, weather, progress, advice,news,space,word(=news),furniture,equipment等,均不可与不定冠词连用。

  3.冠词的类指用法

  (1)定冠词 + 单数可数名词,指的是这个类别,这个类别是可以区别于另一个类别的。如:The compass was invented in China, but the computer was not。

  (2)不定冠词 + 单数可数名词,侧重于指类别中任何一个的特点。如:

  A tiger is a type of very large fierce wild cat that has yellow fur with black bands across。

  注意:man, woman表示泛指时,不用冠词,且常用单数。如:

  Man tries to be the protector of woman。

  (3)可数名词复数或不可数名词,侧重于指类别中的许多个体。如:

  Children usually start walking at around one year old。

  4.冠词的位置问题

  (1)不定冠词 + 副词 + 形容词 + 名词。如:

  This is a very interesting story。

  (2)such、what、both、all、quite、rather +不定冠词+形容词+名词。如:

  I’ve never seen such a film!

  Half a pound of pork, please!

  What a good idea it is!

  (3)as、so、too、how、however、enough+形容词+不定冠词+名词。如:

  I can’t finish the task in so short a time。

  He is brave enough a hunter to kill the bear。

  (4)half、twice、three times、all、both、double + the + 名词。如:

  He paid twice the price for it。

  Their house is three times the size of yours。
