冠词
【知识要点】
冠词是一种虚词，无词义，也没有数和格的变化，不能独立使用，常常放在名词前，帮助说明这个名词的意义。复习冠词须把握好以下三个原则：
其一：单数可数名词用不定冠词a/an表示泛指；
其二：复数可数名词及不可数名词表示泛指时，其前不加冠词；
其三：无论可数名词还是不可数名词，表示特指其前都要加定冠词the。
一、不定冠词的用法
1.不定冠词表示数量“一”，与one相近。如：
I will finish this work in a day.我一天就要完成这项工作。
2.不定冠词用在首次提到的人或物之前，表示泛指。如：
There is a park on the corner of the street.在这条街的拐角处有个公园。
3.不定冠词用在单数可数名词前，表示一类人或事物。如：
A teacher must love his students.教师必须热爱学生。
4.不定冠词表示单位，有“每一”之意。如：
This cloth is 5 yuan a metre. 这种布料5元一米。
5.不定冠词用在物质名词、抽象名词之前，表示“一阵，异常，一种……”等等，也可以表示引起某种情绪的事，即抽象名词具体化使用。如：
Honesty is a virtue. 诚实是一种美德。
It’s a pity that you missed this chance.你错过这次机会是件很遗憾的事。
6.不定冠词用在人名前，表示说话者对此人不认识，相当于a certain，也可以指与某人名有类似性质的人或物。如：
A Mr Wang came to see you this morning.今天早上一位王先生来找过你。
7.用在有名词中的地名前，表示“一个……样的地方”。如：
She is now a dif ferent China from what she was twenty years ago.
8.用在带有修饰词的、表示三餐饭的名词之前，表示“一顿……的午（晚）饭”等。如：
He likes to have a quick breakfast. 他喜欢吃快早餐。
注：在餐名前通常不用冠词。但由于受定语quick的影响，其前用不定冠词，表示“某种”。此时的不定冠词通常有“a kind of” 之意。
9.用在“a most+adj.”结构中，表示“很……”，其中most用来加强语气，表示“很”,“极,非常”。如：
It’s a most important meeting，and everyone must attend it.
这是一次重要会议，每个人都必须参加。
Hangzhou is a most beautiful city，where you can see the famous West Lake.该句不含比较意义，因此在most 之前不加the;而West Lake为专有名词，但其前有修饰语，所以此处应表示特指。
10.用在序数词之前，表示“又一,再一”。如：
Would you like a second cup of tea? (a second cup=another cup)
你想再来一杯茶吗？
The cakes are delicious.He’d like to have a third one because the second one is rather too small.序数词与定冠词连用表示顺序，而与不定冠词连用表示“再一，又一”。
11.用在一些固定搭配之中。如：
for a while，once upon a time，as a rule，all of a sudden，on an average，as a whole，in a hurry，have/take a rest，keep an eye on，in a way，make it a rule，once in a while，with a smile，lend a hand，make a living，make a promise，dream a ...dream，live a ...life，get in a word，have a pain，make an effort，make an apology，pay a visit to等
二、定冠词的用法
定冠词the与指示代词this，that同源，有“那（这）个”的意思，但较弱，可以和一个名词连用，来表示某个或某些特定的人或东西。
1.特指双方都明白的人或物。如：Take the medicine. 把药吃了。
2.上文提到过的人或事。如：
He bought a house.I’ve been to the house.他买了幢房子。我去过那幢房子。
3.指世上独一物二的事物。如：
the sun太阳，the sky天空，the moon月亮，the earth地球
4.与单数名词连用表示一类事物。如：
the dollar 美元;the fox 狐狸；
或与形容词或分词连用，表示一类人。如：the rich 富人;the living 生者。
5.用在序数词和形容词最高级及形容词only，very，same等前面，如：
Where do you live I live on the second floor. 你住在哪？我住在二层。
That’s the very thing I’ve been looking for.那正是我要找的东西。
6.与复数名词连用，指整个群体，如：
They are the teachers of this school.（指全体教师）
They are teachers of this school.（指部分教师）
7.表示所有，相当于物主代词，用在表示身体部位的名词前，如：
She caught me by the arm.她抓住了我的手臂。
8.用在某些由普通名词构成的国家名称、机关团体、阶级、等专有名词前，如：
the People’s Republic of China中华人民共和国
the United States美国
9.用在表示乐器的名词之前，如：
She plays the piano.她会弹钢琴。
10.用在姓氏的复数名词之前，表示一家人，如：
the Greens格林一家人（或格林夫妇）
11.用在惯用语中：
in the day，in the morning（afternoon，evening），the day after tomorrow
the day before yesterday，the next morning
in the sky（water，field，country）
in the dark，in the rain，in the distance
in the middle（of），in the end
on the whole，by the way，go to the theatre
三、不用冠词的情况
1.国名，人名前通常不用定冠词：如：
England，Mary
2.泛指的复数名词，表示一类人或事物时，可不用定冠词；如：
They are teachers.他们是教师。
3.抽象名词表示一般概念时，通常不加冠词；如
Failure is the mother of success.失败乃成功之母。
4.物质名词表示一般概念时，通常不加冠词，当表示特定的意思时，需要加定冠词；如：

5.在季节、月份、节假日、日期、星期等表示时间的名词之前，不加冠词；如：
We go to school from Monday to Friday.我们从星期一到星期五都上课。
6.表示独一无二的职位、职务的名词用作表语、同位语或补足语时，名词前不加冠词。常见的名词有president，chairman，mayor，head，boss,secretary，leader，monitor，professor等。如：
The guards took the American to General Lee.
士兵们把这个美国人送到李将军那里。
7.在三餐、球类运动和娱乐运动的名称前，或者man意为“人类”，word意为“消息”时，不加冠词。如：have breakfast吃早饭，play chess 打牌
Word came that our Women Football Team won the second prize in the World Cup.
我们的女足获得世界杯第二的消息传来。
8.当两个名词同指一个人或物时，后面的名词前不用冠词。如：The teacher and writer has come to the meeting.那个老师，也是作家已来到会议现场。
9.当by与火车等交通工具连用，表示一种方式时，中间无冠词。如：
by bus乘公共汽车，by train乘火车
10.有些个体名词不用冠词。如：
school，college，prison，market，hospital，bed，table，class，town，church，court等个体名词，直接置于介词后，表示该名词的深层含义。如：
go to hospital去医院看病
go to the hospital去医院（并不是去看病，而是有其他目的）
11.不用冠词的序数词。
序数词前有物主代词。如：my first trip
序数词作副词。如：He came first in the race.
在固定词组中。如：at（the）first，first of all，from first to last
四、冠词的位置
冠词一般放在名词之前，名词之前若有形容词，冠词放在形容词之前。下列情况例外：
1.不定冠词用于下列副词加形容词之后：as，how，however，so，too等。如：
He is as good a soldier as he was.他和以前一样是个好士兵。
2.不定冠词置于such，what，many，not，too，much of等之后。如：

3.定冠词通常放在all，both，double，exactly，just等词之后。如：
I offered him double the amount，but he still refused.
4.不定冠词常用于quite和rather之后，但如果另有形容词修饰时，不定冠词既可放在第二位，也可放在第一位，但最常见的仍是第二位。如：
She is quite a woman.她真是个女人。
It was quite/rather a cold day.很冷的一天(同It was a quite/rather cold day.)
5.当名词前的比较级被no，all，far，much等修饰时，也要后置。如:
He is no less a man than the President.
6.定冠词要放在half，twice,much等之后，如：
He paid twice the price for it. 他花了两倍的钱买了它。
7.如果名词被副词hardly，scarcely，barely，exactly所修饰，或和一个形容词共同修饰时，冠词要放在上述副词之后、形容词之前。如：

专题一冠词 考点知识清单 冠词是一种虚词，放在名词的前面，帮助说明名词的含义。冠词与名词的关系密不可分，就好像“鱼离不开水”一样。冠词也可以说是名词的一种标志，它不能离开名词而单独存在。 冠词是每年高考必考的内容。考点常分布在单项选择、完形填空和短文改错中。尤其在单项选择中，每年至少有一题对冠词的用法进行考查。冠词的使用频率很高，用法也很复杂。除了要掌握一些基本原则之外，还要在实践中密切注意其习惯用法和例外情况。 知识梳理 考点一冠词的种类 冠词分为不定冠词和定冠词两类。 1．不定冠词 不定冠词有a和an两种形式。a用在以辅音音索开头的词前，an用在以元音音素开头的词前。如： a woman一位妇女an answer一个答案 a gift一件礼物an eye一只眼睛 注意判断一个词是以元音音素开头还是以辅音音素开头，是根据其读音，而不是根据其字母。 a house 一座房子 an hour 一个小时 a useful tool 一件有用的工具 an ugly smile 一种狞笑 为了便于记忆，我们把这些特殊的词编成两个句子，帮你记忆。 In a university，a European and a one-eyed man walked along a one-way road with a use ful tool．This is a usual thing． 在一所大学里，一个欧洲人和一个一只眼的人拿着一件有用的工具沿着一条单行道走着。这是一件平常之事。 An hour ago，an honest man accepted an unusual gift and went to finish an honorable task.一小时以前，一个老实人接受了一件非同寻常的礼物，去完成一项光荣的任务。 2．定冠词 定冠词只有the一种形式。表示特指的人或事。如： the schoolgirl这位女学生the American song那首美国歌曲 注意不定冠词泛指一类人或事物中的任何一个，相当于汉语中的“一个”，但不强调数目概念。the用在单数或复数名词前，表示特指的某一个或某一些人或事物，相当于汉语中的“这”或“那”。如： It's a flag．这是一面旗。(泛指) The flag is red．这面旗是红的。(特指上句中提及的那面旗) 考点二不定冠词的用法 1．用于可数名词的单数形式前，指人或事物的某一种类。如： Kate is a student．凯特是个学生(而不是工人或其他)。 A student must love his teachers．学生应当热爱他的老师。 2．指某人或某物，但不具体说明何人或何物。如： A girl is looking for Lucy．一个女孩在找露茜。 He works in a factory．他在一家工厂上班。 3．用于首次提到的，一方不知道的人或物。如：
