考点归纳
考点 1 冠词
冠词是历年高考的必考点,对于冠词的考查主要集中在冠词的基本用法和习惯用法,高考中常见的考点如下:
① 冠词的泛指、特指
② 在形容词和副词比较等级前的用法
③ 固定搭配
④ a 和an的区别(2017新增)
预计2019年的高考仍然会以考查冠词在具体语境中的正确使用为主,以语篇型语法填空和短文改错的形式出现,它可能把冠词的各种用法结合名词一起进行考查。

考点 3 代词
代词在近年高考试题中出现频率很高,每年至少测试一道题。一般常见的考点分布在:人称代词、物主代词、指示代词、反身代词等,尤其是不定代词的考查更是重中之重。
一、it作形式主语或形式宾语的用法
1. it作形式主语的句型
(1)It + be + 形容词+主语从句
It is uncertain whether he can come to Jenny’s birthday party or not. 他是否会来詹妮的生日聚会还不确定。
(2)It + be + 名词词组 + 主语从句,这类名词有:a fact, a pity, a shame, an honour, a question等
It’s a pity that you missed the exciting football match. 很遗憾你错过了这场精彩的足球比赛。
(3)It + be + 过去分词 + 主语从句,这类过去分词有:announced, believed, expected, hoped, decided, reported, said, shown等
It is reported that 16 people were killed in the earthquake. 据报道有16人在这次地震中丧生。
(4)It + 不及物动词(seem, appear, happen等) + 主语从句,这类不及物动词有:appear, happen, seem等
It seemed that he didn’t tell the truth. 似乎他没有说实话。
(5)It + be + 形容词 (+ for sb)+ 动词不定式,这类句型常用形容词easy, difficult, hard, important, possible, wise等作表语,有时候为了强调不定式动作的执行者,常在不定式前加for sb.
It is unwise to give the children whatever they want. 给孩子们任何他们想要的东西是不明智的。
(6)It + be + 形容词 + of sb + 动词不定式,这类形容词常是表示心理品质、性格特征的形容词,如:kind, nice, stupid, clever, foolish, polite, impolite, silly, selfish等。某人和这些形容词可以构成主系表结构。

(7)It + be +名词词组 + 动词不定式
It is not a good habit to stay up too late. 熬夜不是一个好习惯。
(8)It + be + 名词或形容词 + 动名词,这类名词和形容词常常是:good, no good, no use, a waste of, useless, senseless等

(9)It + take ( sb )+ 时间(金钱)+ 动词不定式
It will take a whole day to get to the top of the mountain on foot. 步行爬上这座山的顶峰需要一整天。
2. 形式宾语
当复合宾语中的宾语是不定式、v-ing形式或宾语从句时,往往把真正的宾语放在补足语后面,而用it作形式宾语,放在宾语补足语之前。it作形式宾语时,需具备两个条件: ①真正的宾语是不定式、动名词或从句;② 有宾语补足语。
(1)动词+ it + that-从句
You can put it that it was arranged before. 你可以说这是以前安排的。
说明:能用于此结构的动词不多,常见的有 have, take, put等。
(2)动词 + it + when (if)-从句。某些表示"喜、怒、哀、乐"的动词,如like, enjoy, love, hate, dislike, appreciate, prefer等,往往不能直接接宾语从句
I’d prefer it if I didn’t have to do so much work. 要是我不必做那么多工作,就太好了。
(3)动词 + prep. + it + that-从句。that引导的宾语从句不能直接作介词的宾语
See to it that you’re not late again. 注意千万不要再迟到。
You may depend on it that we shall always help you. 尽管放心,我们会随时帮你的。
(4)动词 + it + 介词短语+ that-从句。由及物动词与介词组成的固定搭配中,宾语从句若作该动词的宾语时,要借用it
I leave it to your own judgement whether you should do it. 我让你自己判断这事是否该做。
We owe it to you that there wasn’t a serious accident. 多亏了你才没有发生严重事故。
说明:能用于此结构的动词不多,常见的有take it for granted, bring it to sb’s attention, owe it to sb, keep it in mind that...等。
(5)动词+it + as + 名词/形容词/从句,能用于此句型中的动词有:accept,regard,take,see,view等
I regard it as a great honor to be designated to attend this meeting. 我被选派参加这次会议,感到十分荣幸。
二、it构成的几个易混淆的句型
1. It+be+时间+since引导的状语从句
这个句型表示从since 从句谓语动作发生以后到现在或过去所经过的一段时间,意为"自从……以来已多久了"。表示现在的情况时,主句多用一般现在时,从句多用一般过去时;表示过去的情况时,主句用一般过去时,从句用过去完成时。
It is three years since his father passed away. 自从他父亲去世已经三年了。
2. It+be+时间+before引导的状语从句
这个句型中的时间一般为表示一段时间的词语,如some time, long, years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes等。主句中的谓语动词用肯定式时,意为"过多长时间才……";用否定式时,意为"没过多长时间就……"。主句的时态可用过去时was或将来时will be/be going to be:用was 时,before从句的动词用一般过去时;用will be 时,before从句常用一般现在时。
It was some time before I realized the truth. 过了一段时间我才了解到真相。
It wasn’t long before he told us about this affair. 没过多久他就告诉了我们这件事情。
It will be many years before the situation improves. 这种状况要过许多年才能得到改善。
3. It+be+时间+when引导的状语从句
这个句型中,it 指时间,而且表示时间的词语前没有介词(时间一般为具体时间)。主句中的谓语动词和从句中的谓语动词在时态上一般是一致的,但是当主句是will be时,when从句一般用一般现在时代替将来时。
It was already 8 o’clock when we got home. 我们到家时已经8点了。
4. It is time+ that引导的从句
这个句型属虚拟语气结构,that引导的定语从句常用虚拟过去式。在time之前有时可加上high或about 以加强语气。
It is high time (that) she wrote a letter to her boyfriend. 她早该写一封信给她男朋友了。
5. It/This/That+be+the first(second, third ...) time+that引导的从句
这个句型表示截至说话时某人的一种经历,关键是注意time前有序数词。主句是is 时,从句要用现在完成时;主句是was时,则从句须相应地用过去完成时。
It is the first time (that) these Europeans have visited the Great Wall. 这是这些欧洲人第一次参观长城。
误区点拨
冠词用法难点及误区
一、序数词前冠词的使用问题
强调顺序时用定冠词;当不强调顺序,而是表示"又,还,再"时用不定冠词。如:
The cakes are delicious. He’d like to have ________ third one because ________ second one is rather too small.
A. a; a B. the; the
C. a; the D. the; a
二、school, bed等前面冠词的使用问题
像bed, table, class, school, college, church, hospital, prison等名词,在指这些家具、建筑或场所本身时用冠词,但若抽象地指它们所具有的作用或功能时,则不用冠词,此时多用于go to或者be in / at之后。如: 1. —Where is Jack?

A. 不填;不填 B. the;the
C. the; 不填 D.不填;the

A. The Evens B. The Evens’
C. The Evenses D. Evenses’
②"a(n)+人名"表示"……式的人物"或"有一个名叫……的人",如:
?He is a Lei Feng. 他是一个雷锋式的人物。
?A Smith is waiting for you at the school gate. 有一个叫史密斯的人在门口等你。
③由普通名词构成的专有名词前通常要加the,如the Summer Palace, the United Nations。但若是在"专 有名词(人名或地名)+普通名词"构成的专有名词前不用冠词,如Beijing University, Yale University。 如:
The most important thing about cotton in history is ________ part that it played in ________ Industrial Revolution.
A. 不填;不填 B. the;不填
C. the; the D. a; the
④表示特指时专有名词前也可能用the,如:
the Gorge of China (中国的高尔基)
the China of the 1960s(20世纪60年代的中国)
the Smith you’re looking for(你在找的那个史密斯)
四、物质名词和抽象名词前冠词的使用问题

②有的抽象名词具体化后,前面要加不定冠词,如:
a surprise一件预料之外的事 a pity / shame (一件令人遗憾的事)
a success(一件成功的事或一个成功的人) a pleasure(一件快乐的事),a time(一段时间)
③不定冠词可在coffee, tea, beer, drink等物质名词前表示"一杯 / 罐 / 瓶"。如:
I’d like a tea(=a cup of tea), please. 我要来杯茶。
五、表示三餐的名词前的冠词使用问题
breakfast, lunch, supper等前一般不用冠词,但若受形容词修饰时用a / an;特指时要用the。如:
a good lunch(丰盛的午餐)
How do you like the lunch?(你觉得这顿午餐怎么样?)
六、play后的乐器和球类名词的冠词使用问题
play后接西洋乐器名词时,要加定冠词。但象erhu(二胡)之类的汉语拼音的中国民乐名称前就不用冠词;play后面接球、棋、牌等之类的名词前也不用冠词,如play football / chess / bridge踢足球 / 下棋 / 打桥牌。 After watching ________ TV, she played ________ violin for an hour.
A. 不填, 不填 B. the, the
C. the, 不填 D. 不填, the
七、表示季节、月份、星期的名词前的冠词使用问题
一般不用冠词,但特指时用the;受形容词修饰表示具有某种特点时可用a / an。如:
the spring of 1998 1998年的春天 a hard winter 一个严寒的冬天
八、表示节日的名词前的冠词使用问题
含有day的节日前一般不用冠词,如May Day, New Year’s day, Christmas Day, April Fool’s Day,
Mother’s Day等;但仅中国才有的传习统节日名称前常用the,如the Spring Festival(春节), the Mid-autumn Festival(中秋节)。
九、有后置定语的名词前的冠词使作问题
特指某人或某物时用the;但若指一类事物时用a / an。如:
I’d like to buy a present that is useful but not expensive.
我想买一件价格不贵但又有用的那样一类礼物。(from www.nmet168.com)
十、两个并列名词前冠词的使用问题
指同一人、同一物或同一概念时,第二个名词前不用冠词,如a teacher and writer(一位教师兼作家),a horse and cart(一辆马车),a knife and fork(一付刀叉);但若是指两个人时,第二个名词前一般也要加冠词,如a man and a woman(一个男人和一个女人)。
十一、冠词的非前位用法
1. 不定冠词用在quite,rather,many,half,what,much等词之后。如:
?He is rather a fool.
?—What did you think of the concert?
—Oh,it was quite a success.
2. 不定冠词用在so(as,too,how)+形容词之后。如:
?She is as clever a girl as you can wish to meet.
?It’s too difficult a book for us to read.
注意:以元音音素开头的名词前加不定冠词时用"an"。例如:an apple。
即使单词拼写以辅音字母开头,但该词的读音是元音音素开头,加不定冠词时也要用"an",例如:an hour,an honest boy;反之,拼写以元音字母开头,但读音是辅音,加不定冠词时要用"a",例如:a university。
3. so…that与such…that:
①so…that和such…that都作"如此……以至于"解,that引导结果状语从句。常见句型如下:
so
②such…that和so…that有时可以换用,条件是such所修饰的名词必须是一个单数可数名词,且该名词还带有表性质的形容词。转变公式如下:such a/an+形容词+名词→so+形容词+a/an+名词。如:
?He is such a good student that we all like him.→He is so good a student that we all like him。
但是,如果是不可数名词或复数可数名词,则只能用such,不能用so修饰。如:
?It was such bad weather that he had to stay at home。
③如果复数名词前有many,few,不可数名词前有much,little等表示量的形容词时,应该用so而不用such。如:
?I’ve had so many falls that I’m black and blue all over.
?Mr White got so little money a month that he could hardly keep body and soul together(维持生活)。
但little不表示数量而表示"小"的意思时,仍用such。如:
?They are such little children that they cannot clean the house by themselves.

锦囊妙计
主谓一致记忆口诀
单单复复最常见,集体名词谓用单。
如若强调其成员,复数谓语记心间。
有些名词谓常复,people、police即这般。
主语单数后接介,谓语单数介无关。
many a作主语也如此,谓语动词应用单。
or、nor、but also、there be,近主原则挂嘴边。
关系代词定主语,谓语根据先行词判。
不定式短语、动名词,主语从句谓全单。
时间、货币与距离,谓语多单复少见,
rest,means,following等,意义决定其复、单。
none,all,half of等,of之宾语定答案。
还有分数、百分数,仍据of之宾定复、单。
代词all指人谓复数,all指事情谓用单。
量词用法请注意,谓语要随量词变。
and连接两名词,身兼两职一定冠。
no,each,every后单名,两种事物一概念。
以上情况请记清,谓语动词全用单。
形容词带the一类人,姓氏复数加定冠,
-s结尾的海峡、山脉与群岛,谓语用复勿用单。
代词neither,either,each,用作主语谓全单。
【巧学妙记】
人称代词的用法记忆口诀人称代词主宾格,作用不同莫用错。 主格动词前作主,动词介词后宾格。you和it主宾同,其他主宾须分清。 人称代词并列现,尊重他人礼当先。 单数人称二三一,复数人称一二三。 若把错误责任担,第一人称我靠前。

考点归纳
考点 1 冠词
冠词是历年高考的必考点,对于冠词的考查主要集中在冠词的基本用法和习惯用法,高考中常见的考点如下:
① 冠词的泛指、特指
② 在形容词和副词比较等级前的用法
③ 固定搭配
④ a 和an的区别(2017新增)
预计2019年的高考仍然会以考查冠词在具体语境中的正确使用为主,以语篇型语法填空和短文改错的形式出现,它可能把冠词的各种用法结合名词一起进行考查。
考向1 不定冠词
1. 与可数名词单数连用, 表示类别,泛指一类人或事物。
?—I knocked over my coffee cup. It went right over the keyboard.
—You shouldn’t put drinks near a computer.
2. 用来表示不确定的某一个, 相当于 a certain。
?—Hello, could I speak to Mr. Smith?
—Sorry, wrong number. There isn’t a Mr. Smith here.
3.用于数量、时间等名词前, 表示"每一(单位)的……"。
?I earn 10 dollars an hour as a supermarket cashier on Saturdays.
4. 在抽象名词、物质名词前(特别是这两种名词有定语修饰时)用不定冠词,使之意义具体化,表示"一种"、
"一件"、"一份"等。
?It is an honour for me to be invited to the party.我被邀请参加聚会是一种荣誉。(honour是抽象名词,an
honour指一件荣誉的事)
5. 不定冠词用在序数词前不表示排序,而表示"再一,又一"。
?She didn’t like the color of the two bags and asked for a third one.
她不喜欢这两个包的颜色,又要了一个。

【答案】causes
【解析】考查单复数。一项研究表明,仅仅每天5到10分钟的跑步,就能减少各种原因的心脏病和早亡。根据句意用复数形式。故填causes。
2.(2018·全国新课标卷I·短文改错)Last winter when I went here(改为there) again, they had a big separate house to raise dozens of chicken.
【答案】chicken改为chickens
【解析】考查名词复数。他们拥有一个大的独立住宅,还养了许多只鸡。根据前文的dozens of可知,其后用名词复数形式。
3.(2017·全国新课标卷I·语法填空)This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界) as a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side 62 (effect) such as overweight and heart disease — the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.

5.(2017新课标卷Ⅲ·语法填空)She has turned down several 67 (invitation) to star at shows in order to concentrate on her studies.
【答案】invitations
【解析】考查名词单复数。several修饰可数名词复数形式,故填invitations。
6.(2016·全国新课标卷I·语法填空)Chengdu has dozens of new millionaires, Asia’s biggest building, and fancy new hotels. But for tourists like me, pandas are its top 61 (attract)... The nursery team switches him every few 69 (day) with his sister so that while one is being bottle-fed, 70(the) other is with mum — she never suspects.
2. 不可数名词
(1)通常只用作不可数名词的名词:advice建议, furniture家具, fun乐趣;information信息,news新闻, weather天气, progress进步,wealth财富,value价值等。
(2)不可数名词具体化
①具有某种特性、状态、情感的抽象名词在表示具体的概念时,可以与不定冠词连用,常考的有:
单词 抽象名词意义 具体化名词意义
success 成功 成功的人或事
pleasure 乐趣 令人高兴的事
beauty 美;美丽 美丽的人或事物
comfort 安慰;慰藉 令人感到安慰的人或事物
danger 危险 危险的人或因素

?Being able to afford a drink would be a comfort in those tough times.
在那些艰难的时期,能够买得起一杯酒会是一件欣慰的事。
(3)"of+抽象名词"相当于形容词。能用在此结构中的抽象名词有importance, value, use, significance, help 等。
?It’s of no practical use to me.?这对我没什么实际用途。
?The work I am doing is not of much value.?我做的工作没有多大价值。
典例剖析
1. Your?advice?is?of?little?_________. It?doesn’t?help?to?improve?our?English.
A. useful??? ? B. uselessness??
C. importance?? D. helpless
【答案】C
【解析】 此题考查的是"be of +(形容词)+抽象名词"的用法。useful和helpless为形容词,故排除A和D, 根据后半句知"建议不能帮助我们提高英语成绩",前半句也应该表示否定意义, little 本来就表否定意义,而uselessness又是否定意义,故排除B。
2. She has gained many unforgettable _________ about animals when _________ in the forest doing research.
A. experiences; stayed B. experiences; staying
C. experience; stayed D. experience; staying
【答案】B
3. 表示数量的词(组)与名词的搭配

①用and连接的并列名词的所有格要分两种情况,即表示各自的所有关系时,要分别在并列名词后加-’s 或’;表示共同的所有关系时,只在最后一个名词后加-’s或’。
?Tom’s and Jim’s rooms.汤姆和吉姆(各自)的房间。
?Tom and Jim’s room.汤姆和吉姆(共同)的房间。
②表示店铺、办公室或某人的家时,名词所有格后被修饰的名词一般省略。
at the barber’s在理发店 at the teacher’s在老师办公室
2. of所有格
表示无生命的事物的名词通常用of所有格表示所有关系;名词短语或有定语修饰的有生命的名词也常用of所有格。
the content of the novel小说的内容
the name of the girl over there那边那位女孩的名字
3. 双重所有格
指"名词+of+名词所有格"或"名词+of+名词性物主代词"。
a play of Shakespeare’s(莎士比亚的一个戏剧)
a friend of mine(我的一个朋友)
典例剖析
1. (2018·全国新课标卷II·短文改错)When I was little, Friday’s night was our family game night.
【答案】Friday’s改为Friday。
2. ?mother was unconscious for five hours after being admitted to hospital.
A. John and Mary B. John’s and Mary’s

【答案】D
【解析】句意:约翰和玛丽的妈妈被接收入院后五个小时都不省人事。此处主语是单数名词,表示"约翰和玛丽共有的妈妈",所以只在最后一个名词词尾加-’s。如表示"他们各自的母亲",则用John’s and Mary’s mothers。

考点 3 代词
代词在近年高考试题中出现频率很高,每年至少测试一道题。一般常见的考点分布在:人称代词、物主代词、指示代词、反身代词等,尤其是不定代词的考查更是重中之重。
一、it作形式主语或形式宾语的用法
1. it作形式主语的句型
(1)It + be + 形容词+主语从句
It is uncertain whether he can come to Jenny’s birthday party or not. 他是否会来詹妮的生日聚会还不确定。
(2)It + be + 名词词组 + 主语从句,这类名词有:a fact, a pity, a shame, an honour, a question等
It’s a pity that you missed the exciting football match. 很遗憾你错过了这场精彩的足球比赛。
(3)It + be + 过去分词 + 主语从句,这类过去分词有:announced, believed, expected, hoped, decided, reported, said, shown等
It is reported that 16 people were killed in the earthquake. 据报道有16人在这次地震中丧生。
(4)It + 不及物动词(seem, appear, happen等) + 主语从句,这类不及物动词有:appear, happen, seem等
It seemed that he didn’t tell the truth. 似乎他没有说实话。
(5)It + be + 形容词 (+ for sb)+ 动词不定式,这类句型常用形容词easy, difficult, hard, important, possible, wise等作表语,有时候为了强调不定式动作的执行者,常在不定式前加for sb.
It is unwise to give the children whatever they want. 给孩子们任何他们想要的东西是不明智的。
(6)It + be + 形容词 + of sb + 动词不定式,这类形容词常是表示心理品质、性格特征的形容词,如:kind, nice, stupid, clever, foolish, polite, impolite, silly, selfish等。某人和这些形容词可以构成主系表结构。
It’s very kind of you to help me with the work. =You are kind to help me with the work. 你太好了,帮我做这个工作。
(7)It + be +名词词组 + 动词不定式
It is not a good habit to stay up too late. 熬夜不是一个好习惯。
(8)It + be + 名词或形容词 + 动名词,这类名词和形容词常常是:good, no good, no use, a waste of, useless, senseless等
It is no use arguing about the matter with him. 和他争论这件事是没有用的。
(9)It + take ( sb )+ 时间(金钱)+ 动词不定式
It will take a whole day to get to the top of the mountain on foot. 步行爬上这座山的顶峰需要一整天。
2. 形式宾语
当复合宾语中的宾语是不定式、v-ing形式或宾语从句时,往往把真正的宾语放在补足语后面,而用it作形式宾语,放在宾语补足语之前。it作形式宾语时,需具备两个条件: ①真正的宾语是不定式、动名词或从句;② 有宾语补足语。
(1)动词+ it + that-从句
You can put it that it was arranged before. 你可以说这是以前安排的。
说明:能用于此结构的动词不多,常见的有 have, take, put等。
(2)动词 + it + when (if)-从句。某些表示"喜、怒、哀、乐"的动词,如like, enjoy, love, hate, dislike, appreciate, prefer等,往往不能直接接宾语从句
I’d prefer it if I didn’t have to do so much work. 要是我不必做那么多工作,就太好了。
(3)动词 + prep. + it + that-从句。that引导的宾语从句不能直接作介词的宾语
See to it that you’re not late again. 注意千万不要再迟到。
You may depend on it that we shall always help you. 尽管放心,我们会随时帮你的。
(4)动词 + it + 介词短语+ that-从句。由及物动词与介词组成的固定搭配中,宾语从句若作该动词的宾语时,要借用it
I leave it to your own judgement whether you should do it. 我让你自己判断这事是否该做。
We owe it to you that there wasn’t a serious accident. 多亏了你才没有发生严重事故。
说明:能用于此结构的动词不多,常见的有take it for granted, bring it to sb’s attention, owe it to sb, keep it in mind that...等。
(5)动词+it + as + 名词/形容词/从句,能用于此句型中的动词有:accept,regard,take,see,view等
I regard it as a great honor to be designated to attend this meeting. 我被选派参加这次会议,感到十分荣幸。
二、it构成的几个易混淆的句型
1. It+be+时间+since引导的状语从句
这个句型表示从since 从句谓语动作发生以后到现在或过去所经过的一段时间,意为"自从……以来已多久了"。表示现在的情况时,主句多用一般现在时,从句多用一般过去时;表示过去的情况时,主句用一般过去时,从句用过去完成时。
It is three years since his father passed away. 自从他父亲去世已经三年了。
2. It+be+时间+before引导的状语从句
这个句型中的时间一般为表示一段时间的词语,如some time, long, years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes等。主句中的谓语动词用肯定式时,意为"过多长时间才……";用否定式时,意为"没过多长时间就……"。主句的时态可用过去时was或将来时will be/be going to be:用was 时,before从句的动词用一般过去时;用will be 时,before从句常用一般现在时。
It was some time before I realized the truth. 过了一段时间我才了解到真相。
It wasn’t long before he told us about this affair. 没过多久他就告诉了我们这件事情。
It will be many years before the situation improves. 这种状况要过许多年才能得到改善。
3. It+be+时间+when引导的状语从句
这个句型中,it 指时间,而且表示时间的词语前没有介词(时间一般为具体时间)。主句中的谓语动词和从句中的谓语动词在时态上一般是一致的,但是当主句是will be时,when从句一般用一般现在时代替将来时。
It was already 8 o’clock when we got home. 我们到家时已经8点了。
4. It is time+ that引导的从句
这个句型属虚拟语气结构,that引导的定语从句常用虚拟过去式。在time之前有时可加上high或about 以加强语气。
It is high time (that) she wrote a letter to her boyfriend. 她早该写一封信给她男朋友了。
5. It/This/That+be+the first(second, third ...) time+that引导的从句
这个句型表示截至说话时某人的一种经历,关键是注意time前有序数词。主句是is 时,从句要用现在完成时;主句是was时,则从句须相应地用过去完成时。
It is the first time (that) these Europeans have visited the Great Wall. 这是这些欧洲人第一次参观长城。
误区点拨
冠词用法难点及误区
一、序数词前冠词的使用问题
强调顺序时用定冠词;当不强调顺序,而是表示"又,还,再"时用不定冠词。如:
The cakes are delicious. He’d like to have ________ third one because ________ second one is rather too small.
A. a; a B. the; the
C. a; the D. the; a
【答案】C
二、school, bed等前面冠词的使用问题
像bed, table, class, school, college, church, hospital, prison等名词,在指这些家具、建筑或场所本身时用冠词,但若抽象地指它们所具有的作用或功能时,则不用冠词,此时多用于go to或者be in / at之后。如: 1. —Where is Jack?
—I think he is still in ________ bed, but he might just be in ________ bathroom. (全国卷)
A. 不填;不填 B. the;the
C. the; 不填 D.不填;the
【答案】D
【解析】题中bed是指其用途,即:be in bed在睡觉。第二空指双方都知道的洗手间。
2. When you come here for your holiday next time, don’t go to ________ hotel; I can find you ________ bed in my
flat.
A. the; a B. the; 不填
C. a; the D. a; 不填
【答案】A
【解析】题中bed不是指其用途,而是泛指"床"这类事物中的一个。hotel是特指这次住的那个旅馆。句意是:你下次来这里度假,就不要住那个旅馆了,我在我的公寓里帮你弄一张床。
3. When he left ________ college, he got a job as ________ reporter in a newspaper office.
A.不填;a B.不填;the
C. a; the D. the; the
【答案】A
三、专有名词前的冠词使用问题
一般不用冠词,如John, China等。但以下几种情况用冠词:
①"the+姓氏复数"表示"某某夫妇"或"姓某的一家人"。如:
________ will make a trip around the world during the coming Christmas.
A. The Evens B. The Evens’
C. The Evenses D. Evenses’
【答案】C
【解析】"the+姓氏复数"表示"某某夫妇"或"姓某的一家人"。
②"a(n)+人名"表示"……式的人物"或"有一个名叫……的人",如:
?He is a Lei Feng. 他是一个雷锋式的人物。
?A Smith is waiting for you at the school gate. 有一个叫史密斯的人在门口等你。
③由普通名词构成的专有名词前通常要加the,如the Summer Palace, the United Nations。但若是在"专 有名词(人名或地名)+普通名词"构成的专有名词前不用冠词,如Beijing University, Yale University。 如:
The most important thing about cotton in history is ________ part that it played in ________ Industrial Revolution.
A. 不填;不填 B. the;不填
C. the; the D. a; the
【答案】C
【解析】因为part后面有一定语从句修饰,是特指,用the;又因为工业革命是由普通名词构成的专有 名词,所以前面也要用the。
④表示特指时专有名词前也可能用the,如:
the Gorge of China (中国的高尔基)
the China of the 1960s(20世纪60年代的中国)
the Smith you’re looking for(你在找的那个史密斯)
四、物质名词和抽象名词前冠词的使用问题
一般不用冠词,如We all need water. (我们都需要水。) 但是下列情况要用冠词:
①特指时要加the,如:
In Hangzhou Mr Green was so struck by ________ beauty of ________ nature that he stayed for another night. A. /, / B. /, the
C. the, / D. the, the
【答案】C
②有的抽象名词具体化后,前面要加不定冠词,如:
a surprise一件预料之外的事 a pity / shame (一件令人遗憾的事)
a success(一件成功的事或一个成功的人) a pleasure(一件快乐的事),a time(一段时间)
③不定冠词可在coffee, tea, beer, drink等物质名词前表示"一杯 / 罐 / 瓶"。如:
I’d like a tea(=a cup of tea), please. 我要来杯茶。
五、表示三餐的名词前的冠词使用问题
breakfast, lunch, supper等前一般不用冠词,但若受形容词修饰时用a / an;特指时要用the。如:
a good lunch(丰盛的午餐)
How do you like the lunch?(你觉得这顿午餐怎么样?)
六、play后的乐器和球类名词的冠词使用问题
play后接西洋乐器名词时,要加定冠词。但象erhu(二胡)之类的汉语拼音的中国民乐名称前就不用冠词;play后面接球、棋、牌等之类的名词前也不用冠词,如play football / chess / bridge踢足球 / 下棋 / 打桥牌。 After watching ________ TV, she played ________ violin for an hour.
A. 不填, 不填 B. the, the
C. the, 不填 D. 不填, the
七、表示季节、月份、星期的名词前的冠词使用问题
一般不用冠词,但特指时用the;受形容词修饰表示具有某种特点时可用a / an。如:
the spring of 1998 1998年的春天 a hard winter 一个严寒的冬天
八、表示节日的名词前的冠词使用问题
含有day的节日前一般不用冠词,如May Day, New Year’s day, Christmas Day, April Fool’s Day,
Mother’s Day等;但仅中国才有的传习统节日名称前常用the,如the Spring Festival(春节), the Mid-autumn Festival(中秋节)。
九、有后置定语的名词前的冠词使作问题
特指某人或某物时用the;但若指一类事物时用a / an。如:
I’d like to buy a present that is useful but not expensive.
我想买一件价格不贵但又有用的那样一类礼物。(from www.nmet168.com)
十、两个并列名词前冠词的使用问题
指同一人、同一物或同一概念时,第二个名词前不用冠词,如a teacher and writer(一位教师兼作家),a horse and cart(一辆马车),a knife and fork(一付刀叉);但若是指两个人时,第二个名词前一般也要加冠词,如a man and a woman(一个男人和一个女人)。
十一、冠词的非前位用法
1. 不定冠词用在quite,rather,many,half,what,much等词之后。如:
?He is rather a fool.
?—What did you think of the concert?
—Oh,it was quite a success.
2. 不定冠词用在so(as,too,how)+形容词之后。如:
?She is as clever a girl as you can wish to meet.
?It’s too difficult a book for us to read.
注意:以元音音素开头的名词前加不定冠词时用"an"。例如:an apple。
即使单词拼写以辅音字母开头,但该词的读音是元音音素开头,加不定冠词时也要用"an",例如:an hour,an honest boy;反之,拼写以元音字母开头,但读音是辅音,加不定冠词时要用"a",例如:a university。
3. so…that与such…that:
①so…that和such…that都作"如此……以至于"解,that引导结果状语从句。常见句型如下:
so
②such…that和so…that有时可以换用,条件是such所修饰的名词必须是一个单数可数名词,且该名词还带有表性质的形容词。转变公式如下:such a/an+形容词+名词→so+形容词+a/an+名词。如:
?He is such a good student that we all like him.→He is so good a student that we all like him。
但是,如果是不可数名词或复数可数名词,则只能用such,不能用so修饰。如:
?It was such bad weather that he had to stay at home。
③如果复数名词前有many,few,不可数名词前有much,little等表示量的形容词时,应该用so而不用such。如:
?I’ve had so many falls that I’m black and blue all over.
?Mr White got so little money a month that he could hardly keep body and soul together(维持生活)。
但little不表示数量而表示"小"的意思时,仍用such。如:
?They are such little children that they cannot clean the house by themselves.

锦囊妙计
主谓一致记忆口诀
单单复复最常见,集体名词谓用单。
如若强调其成员,复数谓语记心间。
有些名词谓常复,people、police即这般。
主语单数后接介,谓语单数介无关。
many a作主语也如此,谓语动词应用单。
or、nor、but also、there be,近主原则挂嘴边。
关系代词定主语,谓语根据先行词判。
不定式短语、动名词,主语从句谓全单。
时间、货币与距离,谓语多单复少见,
rest,means,following等,意义决定其复、单。
none,all,half of等,of之宾语定答案。
还有分数、百分数,仍据of之宾定复、单。
代词all指人谓复数,all指事情谓用单。
量词用法请注意,谓语要随量词变。
and连接两名词,身兼两职一定冠。
no,each,every后单名,两种事物一概念。
以上情况请记清,谓语动词全用单。
形容词带the一类人,姓氏复数加定冠,
-s结尾的海峡、山脉与群岛,谓语用复勿用单。
代词neither,either,each,用作主语谓全单。
【巧学妙记】
人称代词的用法记忆口诀人称代词主宾格,作用不同莫用错。 主格动词前作主,动词介词后宾格。you和it主宾同,其他主宾须分清。 人称代词并列现,尊重他人礼当先。 单数人称二三一,复数人称一二三。 若把错误责任担,第一人称我靠前。
