卫辉一中2012届高三二轮备考抓分点透析之英语
冠词
【2012年高考命题预测】
高考对冠词的考查主要体现在:1、冠词(a、an、the的基本用法);2、零冠词的情况;3、固定搭配中有无冠词的区别。
分析今年高考试题,我们发现高考设题越来越注重情境干扰,注重特定语言环境中上下文的联系,题干的语义环境起非常重要的作用。并且现在也不再着重冠词的考查。因此预测:2012年高考对冠词的考查还将是侧重具体语境中冠词的基本用法。
【重难点突破】
[概述] 冠词是虚词,不能单独使用,位于名词前,帮助指明名词的含义。
(一)、不定冠词a和an的用法
基本用法
(1)、用在单数可数名词前,表示某一类人或事物中的个体。
A teacher shouldn’t talk like that.
教师不应当这样讲话。
(2)、用于表示首次提到的某人或某物,但没有具体说明是谁或是什么。(短文改错中常出现)
(3)、用来表示“一”的概念,但不如one的数字概念强。
It took me a year to save up for a new coat.
我用了一年时间才省出钱买一件新大衣。
特殊用法
(1)、表示价钱、时间、速度等的“每一”(=per)。
---- It’s said John will be in a job paying over $60,000 ______ year.
---- Right, he will also get paid by ______ week.(2011江西卷)
A.the; theB.a; theC.the; a D.a; a

(6)、用于most前,表示“非常”“很”等。
This is a most interesting story.
这是一个非常有趣的故事。
(7)、有的不可数名词或本来应该带定冠词(the)的名词,由于受定语(尤其是形容词)的修饰,其前一般要用不定冠词或改用不定冠词,表示某种状态,此时的不定冠词通常含有 a kind of 的意思。如:
have breakfast 吃早餐→have a quick breakfast吃快餐
the world 世界→a world like ours 像我们这样的世界
有些不可数名词即使受形容词的修饰也不能用不定冠词,容易弄错的有:news,advice,luck,fortune,work,fun,weather,homework,housework,information,behavior,harm,damage,progress,furniture,baggage,luggage,poetry,scenery等。

(9)、与副词quite, rather连用时,a (an) 一般要后置。如:
这次聚会很成功。
误:The party was a quite success.
正:The party was quite a success.
但若其后的名词前有形容词修饰,则a (an) 放在quite / rather之前或之后均可以。如:

A.the; a B.a; a C./; the D.the; /
(4)、用于单数可数名词之前,表示该类事物,相当于a。
(5)、用在世界上独一无二的事物前。
特殊用法

注:表示湖泊的专有名词前通常不加定冠词,但对于中国的湖泊则习惯上要加定冠词,如 the Dongting Lake(洞庭湖)。

解析:很多同学错在第二个空to make a first impression上了。在做题的时候不够细心,因为此题的句意是:第一印象是最持久的。总之,你永远不可能有第二个机会去再给别人留一次第一印象。本题强调的重点是第二个机会a second chance;第二次留一个第一印象,make a first impression. first为干扰因素。
若句意改变为:你没有机会去改变你的第一印象You never get a second chance to change the first impression。此处再填the就合情合理了。

【答案解析】
1. B. 因为collection (收藏品,收集物) 是可数名词,此处为单数,又不是特指,所以用不定冠词;books是名词复数表示种类,而非特指,所以不用冠词。又如:a fine collection of paintings精美的绘画收藏品。
2. B. word (话、话语) 是可数名词,without saying a word意为“没说一句话”;虽然silence (沉默)是不可数名词,但此处是特指前面提到的那种沉默,所以用the。
3. A. 因为school, college, university, hospital, prison, church, table, bed名词等指其用途时,不用冠词。leave college意为“大学毕业”。又因为表示职业或身份的单数名词前通常要用不定冠词,所以选A。
4. C. price前加定冠词表特指。句意为“如果你买10个以上,他们会从那个价钱中减掉20便士”。
5. B. 因为division后有介词短语between…and…的限制,这是特指的,所以要用the。又因为concern作“所关切的事”解是可数名词,所以前面要用冠词。
6. D. 因为house和cottage都是可数名词,且都不是特指,所以都用不定冠词。句意是“威尔逊一家住在大海附近的一栋A形房子里,那是一座17世纪建的别墅”。
7. A. 从next time可知,对方这次住了旅馆,第一空的hotel就是特指这个旅馆,所以用the;第二空的单数可数名词bed不是特指的,所以用不定冠词。句意是:你下次来这里度假,就不要到这旅馆来住了,我在我的公寓里帮你弄张床。
8. D. 虽然understanding是不可数名词,但作“了解、理解”解时,却常常要加不定冠词(尤其是当其前有形容词修饰时),排除B和C。又因为life作“生活、人生”解,是不可数名词,不是特指,不用冠词。have a better understanding of life指“对生活有更深刻的理解”。
9. B. 虽然通常说the world,但world有定语修饰时,表示“一个…的世界”时,要用不定冠词。题中两个world都有定语修饰,后者是前者的同位语,所以两个都用不定冠词。句意是:这是一个奇妙的世界,一个什么事都有可能发生的世界。
10. C. 因part后面有一定语从句修饰,是特指,用the;又因为“工业革命”是由普通名词构成的专有名词,所以前面也要用the。
