冠词的考查几乎每年都有一两道题,而且基本都设两空。一般情况下,试题的情景较为曲折,句式以复合句为主。另外,在短文改错和语法填空中也常常涉及冠词的考查。考查要点主要包括:
1.考查定冠词和不定冠词的基本用法。
2.考查定冠词和不定冠词的特殊用法。抽象名词具体化前冠词的使用情况、比较级前冠词的使用情况。
3.考查冠词的泛指、特指、类指和专指用法。
4.考查零冠词的运用。另外,还涉及很多冠词与名词的固定搭配。
复习冠词须把握好以下三个原则:
(1)单数可数名词用不定冠词a/an表示泛指;
(2)复数可数名词及不可数名词表示泛指时,其前不加冠词;
(3)无论可数名词还是不可数名词,表示特指时,其前都要加定冠词the。
2016年高考将继续把冠词的基本用法作为考查重点,而冠词的活用仍会成为2016年高考考查的难点。
一定冠词
1.表示特指。
Pass me the magazine on the desk.
请把桌上的杂志递给我。
二不定冠词
3.用于具体化了的抽象名词前。
He was a success in business.
他是事业成功人士。
三零冠词
1.用于表示泛指或一般意义的物质名词、抽象名词、专有名词、复数名词等之前。
Knowledge begins with practice.
知识从实践开始。
Teachers should be respected.
教师应该受到尊重。
2.东、西方都有的节日名称前不用冠词,如:New Year's Day, Christmas, National Day, Army Day等;但中国的节日一般用定冠词,如:the Spring Festival, the MidAutumn Festival等。
3.月份、日期前一般不用冠词,如:in October, on March 8等。
4.三餐名词前不用冠词,如:have breakfast/lunch/dinner等。
但有定语修饰时需加不定冠词,如:have a big breakfast,have a wonderful lunch等。
5.表示体育运动的名词前不用冠词,如:play football/cards/chess等;但乐器名词前需加定冠词,如:play the violin/the piano等。
6.用于作表语、补足语、同位语的唯一职位名词前。
John is captain of the team.
约翰是这个队的队长。
They elected him president of the society.
他们选他为协会会长。
7.用于表示“变成”的turn后、作表语的单数名词前。
He was a teacher before he turned writer.
他成为作家之前是教师。
10.用于某些独立主格结构中。
The teacher came in, book in hand (=with a book in his hand).
老师走了进来,手里拿着书。
四冠词在固定搭配中的用法
1.用在表示计量的名词前,如by the hour, by the day, by the dozen, by the yard等,但是如果表示单位的名词为不可数名词,之前不用冠词,如by weight, by height等。
2.在句型“动词+sb.+介词+the+身体某部位”中的the不可用人称代词替代。
take sb. by the arm 抓住某人的手臂
hit sb. in the face 打某人的脸
此外,在be red in the face (脸红), be lame in the right leg (右腿瘸)等结构中,名词前要用the。
3.用于某些习惯用法,如have a look, play a trick on, in a hurry, at a loss (茫然,不知所措)等。
4.有些习语中有无冠词意义完全不同。如:
