理解并掌握冠词的用法
冠词（Articles）
冠词三兄弟a, an 和the 的任务就是给名词“戴帽子”。语法上，冠词是虚词，没有词义，用
于名词前，帮助表明词义。冠词三兄弟的分工各有不同，大家一定要记清楚，不要“张冠李戴”。
冠词分为两类：不定冠词a/an 和定冠词the。
不定冠词a/an 只能用于单数名词之前，表示“一 …”的意思或该名词的不特定性。
定冠词the 则强调该名词的特定性，表示“这、这些”等意思，在可数名词与不可数名词之
前都能使用。
一、不定冠词的用法
1. 不定冠词的种类：不定冠词有两个a 和an。
a 用于以辅音音标开头的单词之前。例如：a book 一本书 a woman 一个女人
an 用于以元音音标开头的单词之前。例如：an apple 一个苹果 an hour 一个小时
注意：当形容词修饰名词时，冠词要放在形容词的前面，这时用a 或an 取决于这个形容词的
读音。 例如：
an
English
teacher
一位英语老师 a red
apple
一个红苹果
2. 不定冠词的用法：
(1) 用于第一次提到的、不确定的人或物（可数名词）之前，例如：

There is a dog

Do you see a man
in red T-shirt? 你有看到一个穿红体恤衫的男子吗？
(2) 用于价格或时间等名词的前面，是“每…”的意思， 例如：
4 yuan a kilo 每公斤四元 once a week 一周一次
(3) 表示职业、身份，例如：
a lawyer 一个律师 a doctor 一个医生 a student 一名学生
(4) 用于数字、量词之前，例如：
a hundred 一百 a lot of 许多 a couple 一对
(5) 用于一些固定词组中
have a rest 休息 make a living 谋生 a great deal 很多
二、定冠词的用法
1. 定冠词的一般用法
(1) 用于第二次谈到的人或物，例如：
She has a bag. The bag is yellow. 她有一个包，这个包是黄色的。
(2) 用于双方共知的人或物，例如：
I don’t like the coat. 我不喜欢这件大衣。
(3) “the + n 单数.”可以表示一类人或物，例如：
the panda 大熊猫 the driver 司机
2. 定冠词的特殊用法
定冠词常用于一些特定词的前面。
助记：沙漠、河流与群山； 列岛、海峡与海湾； 阶级、党派、国家名； 组织、团体和机关；
方位、朝代、独一词； 会议、文件及报刊； 乐器、建筑、海洋群； 定冠词帽戴在前。

the People’s Daily 人民日报 the United Nations 联合国

During summer vacations, I would volunteer at the pet rescue ( 救助) centre, so I could see a lot of
dogs. Minnie was the funniest-looking dog I'd ever seen by far. Her body looked like a sausage. Her hair
was too thin to 1 her body. Her eyes always seemed surprised, and her tail was so short that it
looked like a rat’s tail.
She looked so strange that her 2 didn’t want her any more. She was brought to the centre. But
I thought, “Minnie was kind and sweet. No one should laugh at her strange looking.” So I gave Minnie a
good bath and 3 her in the newspaper: “Funny-looking dog, kind and sweet, needs loving 4

Later, a boy called me, but I warned him that Minnie was 5 . However, the boy told me that his

grandfather’s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. They wanted to keep Minnie very much. Hearing these
words, I said that they could take Minnie away. I combed (梳) her hair, and gave her a good bath. Then we

Minnie into their arms and rushed out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind
them to see his reaction (反应).
Inside the car, the grandfather put Minnie in his arms and 7 her soft hair. She
looked very relaxed and happy. “She’s perfect, and I like her!” the old man said. I was 8 that
Minnie had found a good owner. Just at that time, I saw that the grandfather’s eyes were a milky white
color—he was blind.
After that summer vacation, I missed Minnie so much. So I went back to the grandfather’s house. The
grandfather was walking in the garden with Minnie 9 the way. I could see both of them were happy.

A
Alex and Emily Godfrey had been in Japan with their parents for nearly a week. They were there to
visit their mother’s old college roommate, who had moved to Japan to teach English. Then she fell in love
with the country and married a Japanese.
“What's our plan for the afternoon?” asked Alex after lunch one day.
“Well, ” said Mr. Ito, “we have tickets for a 4:00 baseball game. ”
“ I had no idea baseball was popular in Japan,” replied Alex.
A few hours later, the Itos and the Godfreys were seated inside the stadium among a crowd of excited
fans.
“Are those cheerleaders?” asked Emily. She was pointing to a group of men on the ball field who led
the crowd in chants and cheers. Mrs. Ito nodded, “I forget that Americans don't have cheerleaders for
baseball games. That's the difference between American and Japanese baseball culture.”
“Baseball isn’t my cup of tea, but today’s game promises to be a good one. The two teams are the best
in Japan, “ Mr. Ito added.
Once the game began, Emily and Alex found the game itself didn't seem much different at all from
the American baseball games. They were surprised, though, to see people waving American flags from
time to time.
Mr. Ito explained, “Japanese teams are each allowed to have three foreign players. When American
players come up to bat, their fans show support by waving your country’s flag.”
At the end of the game, Alex and Emily were tired, but their minds were racing with all they had seen
in the game.
“Did you have a good day, kids?” asked Mrs. Godfrey, turning to Alex and Emily.
They nodded. “After today, I have a feeling that American baseball may never be quite as interesting
again. ” said Emily.

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color
of most growing plants.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that
is not yet ripe or finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a
situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns ( 角) had not yet
developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle (战役).
By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb (拇指). The expression
comes from early nineteen hundreds. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes
10
plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden
continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and
other grains (谷物). The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of
hard work by agricultural (农业的) scientists who had green thumbs.
Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling, jealousy (嫉妒). The green-eyed monster
is not a frightening animal from outer space. It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by
British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has
when someone has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his
girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you
get a pay rise and he does not.
9. If a person is said to have a green thumb, it means _____.
A. he has a magic hand B. one of his thumbs is green
C. he is good at growing plants D. his garden is greener than others’
10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. A greenhorn meant an experienced soldier before.
B. A greenhorn now can refer to a fresh worker.
C. The Green Revolution have nothing to do with green thumbs.
D. People can make plants grow quickly by the Green Revolution.
11. A man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if _____.
A. he meets something frightening
B. he reads an unpleasant play
C. he can’t go out with his girlfriend
D. his friend gets the prize but he doesn’t
12. The author is actually talking about ________ in this passage.
A. the importance of the color green in nature
B. the development of the word green in English history
C. the different ways to describe people with the word green
D. the meaning of the word green in English expressions
