What I need is book that contains ABC of oil painting. A. a; 不填 B. the; 不填 C. the; an D. a; the 21世纪教育网【答案】D【09陕西卷】What_pity that you couldnt be there to receive_prize!A. a; a B. the; a C. a; the D. the; the 解析:C.本题目的很明确，即考查考生对冠词相关固定搭配的熟练程度，第一空所填冠词与上下文构成固定句型what a pity that，用不定冠词a，相信绝大多数考生都能够正确选择；第二空，注意这应该发生在两者之间的对话，对话双方都对说话内容有明确的了解。举例来说：Open the window,please.这里，对话双方都知道指的是哪扇窗户。因此，第二空内容后名词表示特指，用定冠词the。【09北京卷】The biggest whale is _ blue whale, which grows to be about 29 meters longthe height of _ 9-story building. A. the; the B. a; a C. a; the D. the; a解析：D.抛开the用在序数词前，抑或是用在世界上独一无二的事物的名词前等等这一类的用法不谈，我们知道the一般是用在大家都认知的事物的名词前，或是用在单数的普通名词前，表示一类人或事物。例如，The train goes faster than the bus.这里的the+普通名词是表示一类事物，泛指火车和汽车。所以第一个空应该是the,表示一种泛指概念。第二个空如果我们填the就表示特定的一栋楼，所以这里填a,表示任意概念，任何一栋九层楼房，是一种泛指的概念。 【09江西卷】Some people fear that _ air pollution may bring about changes in_weather around the world. A. /; the B. the; / C. an; the D. the; a 解析：A.本题目的很明确，即考查学生对冠词使用情况的理解程度。我们知道空气污染应是一个抽象的概念，造成空气污染的因素才是客观实在的东西。在抽象名词前一般不用冠词，例如，Failure is the mother of success.这里的failure是一个抽象的概念，体现failure的事或物才是客观实在的东西。所以，对于抽象和非抽象的界定标准要把握好。Weather它本身就是客观实在，阴天，雨天，晴天都是weather,指的就是天气，所以weather在这里并不是抽象名词，所以我们用the weather泛指这类概念。 【09四川卷】In order to find _ better job , he decided to study _ second foreign language .A. the ; a B. a ; a C. the ; the D. a ; the解析：B.冠词这一块有时也会结合词组（也就是冠词一些固定的结构）来考查，这就更加强调平时积累的重要性了，a second 表示再次，例如，You need to type in your password a second time to confirm it . 大家一定记住我在课堂上讲的a+序数词的用法；第一个空表示泛指的一个更好的工作，泛指，应该用a.1. “Do you know _ English for 帅哥?” “Im afraid I dont. Im not interested in _ English language.”A. the, the B. the, 不填C. 不填, the D. 不填, 不填【陷阱】容易误选D，因为表示语言的名词前通常不用冠词。【分析】最佳答案为A。在英语中，表示语言的名词前通常不用冠词，但在某些特殊情况下可用冠词。如：(1) 当语言名词表特指意义，其前可用定冠词。如：The English spoken in America and Canada is a little different from that spoken in England. 美国和加拿大讲的英语与英国讲的英语有点不同。(2) 当语言名词表示某一语言中的对应词时，其前要用定冠词。如：Whats the English for this? 这个东西用英语怎么说? (3) 当在语言名词后加上 language一词时，也要用冠词。如：There have been many changes in the history of the English language. 英语发展过程中有很多变革。2. I couldnt remember the exact date of the storm, but I knew it was _ Sunday because everybody was at _ church. A. a, the B. a, 不填C. 不填, a D. 不填, 不填【陷阱】容易误选D，因为星期名词前不加冠词；而 at church 表示在教堂里做礼拜，其中也不用冠词。【分析】最佳答案为B。确实，在通常情况下星期名词前不用冠词，但在某些特殊情况下还是可以用冠词的，如表示特指，其前可用定冠词；表示“某一个”或受描绘性定语修饰表示“某种”这样的意义等，其前可用不定冠词。如：He came on the Sunday and went away on the Monday. 他星期日来，星期一就走了。My birthday happened to be on a Saturday. 我的生日碰巧是星期六。3. Which person do you refer to, the one with _ long hair or the one with _ long beard?A. a, a B. 不填，不填C. a, 不填 D. 不填，a【陷阱】误选A或B，认为hair(头发)和beard(胡须)性质和用法应该差不多，要么都可数，要么都不可数，或者说要么都用不定冠词，要么都不用。【分析】最佳答案选D。hair 和 beard 在用法上并不完全相同：hair 可用作可数或不可数名词，用作可数名词时，指一根一根的毛发或头发，如说 Theres a hair in my soup (我的汤里有根头发)；用作不可数名词（集合名词）时，则是整体地指一个人的头发。比较：He has gray hairs. 他有几根白发了。He has gray hair. 他满头白发了。而beard 则通常只用作可数名词，且指的是一个人所有的胡须，而不是指一根胡须，它的复数形式，通常是指多个人的胡须，而不是指多根胡须，如：He no longer wears a beard. 他不再留胡须。Not all men grow beards. 并不是所有的男人都留胡须。4. I once watched _ one-act play, which was played by _ 11-year-old boy.A. a, a B. an, anC. a, an D. an, a 【分析】最佳答案填C。第一空填 a，因为 one-act的第一个音是辅音不是元音；第二空填an，是因为 11的英文是eleven它的第一个音是元音不是辅音。类似以下各题的答案是 C 不是其他：(1) Before he was arrested, he had taken _ one-month holiday, and stayed in the country with _ 18-year-old girl, one of his students.A. a, a B. an, anC. a, an D. an, a (2) We hired _ one-eyed man to play in our film, and we gave him _ 100-pound check for just one minute.A. a, an B. an, aC. a, a D. an, an5. “Have you seen _ pen? I left it here this morning.” “Is it _ black one? I think I saw it somewhere.”A. a, the B. the, theC. a, a D. the, a【陷阱】误选A，生搬硬套冠词用法规则：第一次提到某人或某事物用不定冠词，第二次再提到该人或该事物时用定冠词。【分析】最佳答案为C。第一空填a，比较好理解；而第二空填a是因为此句中的one 并非指前面提到的 pen，即这里的 one 与前面的 pen 并非同一事物，这从后面一句的 I think I saw it somewhere 可以清楚地知道。请比较下面一题： “Have you seen _ pen? I left it here this morning.” “Is it _ black one? I found it in the corner.”A. a, the B. the, theC. a, a D. the, a此题的最佳答案是 A不是C。请注意其后 I found it in the corner这一信息，它表明说明者是拿着笔在与对方说话。请再看一个类似的例子：“Have you seen _ new bike? I put it here just now.” “Is it _ white one? A boy has ridden it away.”A. a; a B. a; theC. the; the D. the; a此题答案选A，注意其后的 A boy has ridden it away 表明自行车已不在说话者身旁。6. My friend Mary is _ beautiful girl and _ girl everyone likes to work with.A. a, a B. a, theC. the, a D. the, the【陷阱】很容易误选B，认为第一次提到 girl 用不定冠词，第二次提到就应该用定冠词。【分析】最佳答案为A。句中第二次提到 girl 时并不是特指的，此句实为一省略句，补充完整为 My friend Mary is a beautiful girl and she is a girl everyone likes to work with. 请再做以下试题(答案选A)：1.
