托福语法 详解定冠词the的使用方法
英语课
定冠词限定名词时主要表示特指,针对TOEFL应注意以下几点:
(1) the和可数名词单数连用,表示一类人或物,如:
the fern(蕨类), the wallflower
(2) 序数词之前必须用the,如:
the first woman, the nineteenth century
但前面有物主代词时除外,如 my first baby
(3) 形容词最高级之前必须用the(有物主代词时除外),如:
the largest city, the most advanced technology
(4) of连接的名词前多用the, 如:
the development of the watch,
(5) 世界上独一无二的东西前应加the, 如:
the globe(地球),the equator(赤道), the moon, the sun
在下列情况下,一般不用the:
(1) 表示人名、地名、国家名等专有名词前, 一般不加,如:
Dennis Chavez(人名),Alaska(地名),English(英语), February(二月), America(美国)
但是在表示海洋、海峡、江、河、山脉、群岛等专有名词时要加上the
the Great Lakes(美国五大湖), the Changjiang River(长江)
(2) 无特指的不可数名词前,如:
algebra(代数学), advertising 1, accounting(会计学) www.ExamW.CoM
(3) 表示类别的复数名词前,如:
Historians 2 believe that…, Amphibians(两栖动物) hatch 3 from…
(4) 一些固定词组中,如:
in history, in nature, at work, at home , go to school, go to bed, in bed
乘车的词组:
by train(乘火车), by car (乘汽车), by bicycle(骑脚踏车), by bus (乘公共汽车),
by land(由陆路), by sea (由海路), by water (由水路) , by air (通过航空)
on foot (步行), by plane(乘飞机), by ship (乘船),

注意:表示职位的词之前的冠词有无均可, 如:He was elected (the) chairman of the committee.
例题:
(1 ) Historically, ---- chief material for making furniture has been wood, but metal and stone havealso been used.
(A) it was the
(B) that the
(C) there was a
(D) the
答案:D
解释:空格后是主谓句,A、C可先排除,B使原句只有从句没有主句,只剩下D可选,D是定冠词作名词material的限定词,表特指
(2) The Yukon River, which flows into the Bering Sea, gives its name to a region of Alaska and aterritory of the Canada.
应改为:of
解释:Canada是国名,属专用名词,之前不能加定冠词

应改为:to the nineteenth
解释:nineteenth是序数词,之前应加the
