人教版英语九年级下册语法总结1

人教版英语九年级下册语法 1 冠词a/an/the/x的辨析 1. 不定冠词 (1) 不定冠词有两个：a和an。a用于以辅音音素开头的单词之前，an用于以元音音素开头的单词之前。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。 (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； ②用于重量或时间等表示单位的名词前面，是“每……”的意思； ③表示职业、身份； ④用于数字hundred, thousand, million、量词之前； ⑤用于一些固定词组中，如：have a rest 休息；make a living 谋生。例： I read a book every month. 我每个月读一本书。 An apple a day keeps the doctor away. 每天一个苹果，医生远离我。 注意：有些单词虽然以元音字母开头，但是前面用不定冠词a，如university （大学）。这是因为u在此发[ ju: ]，以辅音音素开头用a。同样，有些单词虽然以辅音字母开头，但是前面用不定冠词an，如hour。这是因为h在此不发音，ou发[a?]的音，以元音音素开头用an。 2. 定冠词the (1) 一般用法： ①用于第二次谈到的人或物。 ②用于双方共知的人或物。 ③“the + n.单数”可以表示一类人或物。 例： The telephone was invented by Bell. 电话是由Bell发明的。 ④指世界上独一无二的事物。 (2) 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。 ①用于姓氏复数之前表示夫妇或全家人。 ②“the + adj.”表示一类人或物。如：the young 年轻人。 ③用于一些固定词组中：
