中考考点:冠词的用法专题精讲及同步练习
-命题趋势
冠词虽小,只有a,an和the三个,但却是历年各地中考必考语言点之一。就考查题型而言,以单项选择为主,有时在完形填空中出现。从命题意图看,以考查不定冠词a和an的用法区别、不定冠词和定冠词的用法区别为主。同时考查冠词的各种不同用法。
-考查重点
冠词的考查重点包括不定冠词a和an的用法,定冠词the的用法和零冠词的用法等。其中,不定冠词与定冠词的用法区别以及在具体语言环境中冠词的应用是历年中考试题考查的热点,也是今后的考查方向。
一.冠词概述
冠词是虚词,本身不能单独使用,也没有词义,它用在名词的前面,帮助指明名词的含义
冠词分为不定冠词和定冠词两种。不定冠词仅用在单数可数名词前面,表示“一”的意义,但不强调数目观念,只表示名词为不特定者。
定冠词则表示名词为特定者,表示“这”,“那”,“这些”,“那些”的意思,在可数的单复数名词或不可数名词前面都可以用
二.a和an的区别
不定冠词有a和an两种形式,a用于辅音(不是辅音字母)开头的词前,an用于元音(不是元音字母)开头的词前。
例如:a boy,a university,a European country;
an hour,an honour,an island,an elephant,an umbrella
三.不定冠词的用法
1.泛指某一类人、事或物;相当于any,这是不定冠词a/an的基本用法。
2.泛指某人或某物,但不具体说明何人或何物。
3.表示数量,有“一”的意思,但数的概念没有one强烈。
4.表示“每一”,相当于every. 例如,I go to school five days a week.我一周上五天课。
5.用在序数词前,表示“又一”,“再一”。例如,I have three books. I want to buy a fourth one.我已经有三本书,我想买第四本。

四.定冠词的用法

3.指上文已经提到的人或事物。例如:I have a car. The car is red.我有一辆小汽车,它是红色的。
4.指世界上独一无二的事物。 例如:Which is bigger,the sun or the earth?哪一个大,太阳还是地球?
