纵观历年高考,冠词的考查出现了逐年减少的趋势,这也是专家、教师、学生们的愿望。冠词虽少,但却是一道难题。加之初中教学的影响,冠词的应用的确给学生带来学习的困难。下面就以上高考题谈谈冠词的活用:专有名词的个体化,
如第1、4、10、12题。序数词前加a,an,表示又、再一个如第二题。不可数名词的个体化,
如第3、6、7、9题。比较级前加a,表示“更”,如果再加上否定就可以表示最高级如:How beautifully she sings! I have never heard a better voice.比较级连用表示“越来…越”
如第11题。第9题第2空为什么没有冠词,:there is no such thing as free lunch in the world.
因为no的后面单数名词是不加冠词的。No放在单数名词前相当于not a/an .第8题ing构成的动名词前加the名词化。当然常规用法的考查也是有的,如:3、4题的第2空,第6题的第1空,5、13、14题均属于常规考查。
