初中语法一本通：冠词

冠词
重点知识归纳及讲解
（一）概说
1．冠词是一种虚词，不能独立担任一个成分，只能附着在一个名词上，帮助说明其词义。英语中有两个冠词：
1）定冠词the
2）不定冠词a/an
定冠词the通常读作[]，在元音前读作[i]，特别强调或单念时读作[i:]。
不定冠词在元音音素开始的单词前用an这个形式，读作[n]；在其他情况下则使用a，读作[]。
2．冠词的基本意义
不定冠词a/an与数词one同源，表示“一个”的意思，用在可数名词单数前。
例如：
She is a nurse.
她是个护士。
He is an Englishman, with an Irish wife.
他是一位英国人，有一个爱尔兰妻子。
定冠词the，与this同源，有“这（那）个”的意思，但比较弱，表示一（几）个特定的人或东西，有时可译作“这个（些）”或“那个（些）”。
例如：
That’s the book you want.
这就是你要的那本书。
Who’s the young man over there
那边那个年轻人是谁？
但在很多情况下，“这”或“那”这类词在译文中并不出现。
例如：
Put it on the table.
把它放在桌上。
Shut the door, please.
请把门关上。
3．特指和泛指
一般来说，名词有特指和泛指两种情况，请比较下面的句子：
A gentleman is asking to see you.
有位先生要求见你。（泛指）
Ask the gentleman to come in.
请那位先生进来。（特指）
在特指时一般前面要加定冠词，而泛指时则有三种情况：
1）在可数名词单数前加不定冠词。
例如：
She sent me a postcard
她寄给我一张明信片。
2）在可数名词复数前可不加冠词，可使用some, any这类词。
例如：
These are new words.
这些是生词。
She sent me some flowers.
她送给我一些花。
3）在不可数名词前多不加什么，有时也可加some, any等。
例如：
It’s lovely weather.
天气真好。
Do you want any sugar in your tea
你茶里要放点糖吗？
Give us some help.
给我们一些帮助。
（二）不定冠词的基本用法
1．泛指某一类人或事物中的一个，代表某一类别（不一定译为“一”）
例如：
His father is a doctor.
他父亲是医生。
2．代表某一类人或事物，相当于any（+名词）（不必译为“一”，但必须用a，表示类别）
例如：
A horse is a useful animal.
马是有用的动物。
3．指某人或某物（不是指某一类），但不具体说明何人或何物（一般译为“一”）
例如：
This book was written by a worker.
这本书是一位工人写的。
4．表示数量，有“一”的意思，但数的概念没有one强烈（一般译为“一”）
例如：
Wait a moment.
等一下。
5．表示单位，相当于“每”的意思
例如：
We have three meals a day.
我们每日吃三餐。
6．用于某此固定词组中
例如：
a few, a little, a bit (of), a lot of等。
（三）定冠词的基本用法
1．特指某（些）人或某（些）事物
例如：
Give me the book.
把那本书给我。
2．指谈话双方都知道的人或事物
例如：
Where is the doctor
医生在哪儿？
3．再次提到上文提到过的人或事物
例如：
I bought a dictionary yesterday. The dictionary is at home.
昨天我买了一本词典。词典在家里。
4．用在大家所熟悉的、世界上独一无二的事物
例如：
The earth is bigger than the moon, but smaller than the sun.
地球比月亮大，但比太阳小。
5．用在序数词和形容词最高级前
例如：
Mr Wang teaches the first class.
王先生上第一节课。
Of all the stars the sun is the nearest to the earth.
在所有的恒星中，太阳离地球最近。
6．用在单数可数名词，表示某一类人或事物
例如：The horse is a useful animal.
马是有用的动物。
7．与下列专有名词连用
1）在江、河、湖、海、群岛、山脉的名称前
例如：
the Changjiang River, the Great Lake
2）在姓氏的复数名词前，表示夫妇二人或全家人
例如：
The Greens are sitting at the breakfast table.
格林一家人正围坐在早餐桌旁。
8．和某些形容词连用，表示一类人
例如：
the old 老人 the young 年轻人
the rich 富人 the poor 穷人
the sick 病人 the dead 死人
9．在一些习惯说法中
the east (west, south, north)
in the morning (afternoon, evening)
on the left (right)
in the end
go to the cinema
（四）不用冠词的几种情况
1．在专有名词，抽象名词和物质名词前
例如：

我们爱好科学。
2．在表示一类人或事物的复数名词前
