一、冠词:
冠词用在名词的前面,有定冠词“the”与不定冠词“a;an”之分。
定冠词表示“确指”,译作“这(那)个”;不定冠词表示“泛指”,译作“一个”。
例题解析:
( ) _____ lady over there is _____ university teacher.
A) A, the B) The, an C) The, a D) The, the
“over there”意为“那边的”,是后置定语,它表示前面名词“lady”(女士)是“确指”的说法,因此要加上定冠词“the”。
后半句意为“一位大学教师”,是泛指的说法,因此要加上不定冠词“a”或“an”。
由于“university”的读音起始于辅音“j”,因此要加定冠词“a”。
所以本题答案应该选“C”。
( ) He prefers playing _____ piano to playing _____ hockey.
A) the, the B) the, / C) / , / D) / , the
“piano”意为“钢琴”,属于乐器,要求前面加定冠词“the”。
后半句中“hockey”意为“曲棍球”,属于球类活动,要求不加任何冠词。
所以本题答案应该选“B”。
( ) Mr. Black was made _____ manager of our company.
A) / B) a C) an D) the
“manager”表示被选的职位,前面不应加任何冠词。
所以本题答案应该选“A”。
此外,冠词还有许多特殊的用法:
1. 由普通名词组成的专有名词前,要加定冠词,如:the Great Wall(长城)
2. 在拼音名词前,一般不加任何冠词,如:Thomas Green;Changfeng Park
3. 在江、河、湖、海前,即使是拼音名词,也要加定冠词“the”,如:the Dongting Lake
4. 一般用“单数名词加‘a’;复数名词不加‘the’”来表示“泛指”的意思。

二、名词:
名词表示人或物体的名称,有普通名词(park)、专有名词(Peter;Party)、集合名词(family, class, police)、缩写名词(SARS, CEO, WTO)……等。
总体上说,它们可以分成两大类;即可数名词和不可数名词。
要注意它们在句中的不同要求和变化。
例题解析:
( ) His grandfather is _____.
A) Robert Bob B) Tom Black C) Kate White D) Black Green
英语中,人的姓名排列是倒过来的;先是名,即“first name”,后为姓,即“second name”,也可叫做“family name”或“surname”。
做这类题目,必须先搞清楚哪个单词是表示名字,哪个单词是表示姓氏,名字还要分清男女性别。
这道题中说的是“爷爷”,是男名,所以本题答案应该选“B”。
( ) _____ are playing tennis in the playground.
A) The Browns B) The Brown's C) Browns D) Brown's
英语中,姓氏前加定冠词“the”,后面加“s”,有“一家人”之意。
所以本题答案应该
选“A”。
( ) Be careful. There is a _____ hole in the ground.
A) two-foot-deep B) two-feet-deep C) two-foot deep D) two-feet deep
这道题目考的是复合形容词。
在复合形容词中的名词应该用单数形式,在整个复合形容词中的各个单词都要用短横“–”来连接。
由于它被看作为一个普通的形容词,因此,在可数名词前还要再加上冠词。
此句中,“一个两英尺深的洞”应译为“a two-foot-deep hole”,所以本题答案应该选“A”。
( ) He’s got bad toothache. He’d better go to _____.
A) dentist B) the dentist C) the dentist’s D) see the dentists
“去看牙科医生”可译为“go to see the dentist”或“go to the dentist’s”。
后一个词语中的“the dentist’s”表示“the dentist’s clinic”。
所以本题答案应该选“C”。
( ) The _____ teachers wondered if the _____ students were in trouble.
A) woman, boy B) woman, boys C) women, boy D) women, boys
英语中,“女教师们”应该译为“women teachers”,而“男学生们”应该译为“boy students”。
所以本题答案应该选“C”。
( ) _____ came that Houston Rocket won again and Yao Ming got the most scores.
A) A news B) Message C) Word D) Words
“据说”在英语中有多种说法:“It was said that”、“Word came that”、“News came that”、“A message came that”……等。
所以本题答案应该选“C”。
( ) All of a sudden, something on the ground caught _____.
A) his eye B) his eyes C) his own eyes D) eyes of his own
“catch one’s eye”是固定词组,意为“引起某人注意”;即“be noticed by sb.”。
此句中,“eye”是“视线”之意,由“eyesight”演变而来。
随着语言的发展,一些词语会产生演变,大致上都是朝“简单化”方向发展,如:“countryside”→“country”、“mankind”→“man”、“campsite”→“camp”、“in the daytime”→“in the day”……等。
所以本题答案应该选“A”。
( ) The lady with long _____ found her husband had already got three gray _____.
A) hair, hair B) hair, hairs C) hairs, hair D) hairs, hair
要掌握英语中哪些是可数名词,哪些是不可数名词。
但是有些名词具有可数和不可数两种性质,要靠具体说法来判别。
如这道题中的“hair”(头发)就是这类词。
前半句说的是
“一头长发”,是不可数名词;后半句说的是“三根白发”,是可数名词。
所以本题答案应该选“B”。
