一、不定冠词的漏用或误加
1. 单数可数名词若泛指,其前需加 a / an,不要按汉语习惯漏掉此不定冠词。如:
他是位很好的老师。
正:He is a very good teacher.
误:He is very good teacher.
2. 不可数名词前不能直接使用不定冠词。如:
小孩说他想要一块面包。
正:The child said that he wanted a piece of bread.
误:The child said that he wanted a bread.
二、不定冠词的搭配错误
不定冠词不能与指示代词、物主代词、所有格等连用。如:
他是我的一位好朋友。
正:He is a good friend of mine.
误:He is my a good friend.
我不喜欢那部电影。
正:I don’t like that film.
误:I don’t like a that film.
三、不定冠词的位置用错
1. 若单数可数名词前有 such, what 等词修饰,不定冠词应置于它们之后。如:
我从未看到那样大的苹果。
正:I’ve never seen such a big apple.
误:I’ve never seen a such big apple.
误:I’ve never seen such big an apple.
2. 若修饰名词的形容词受 too, so, as, how 等副词的修饰,则通常将不定冠词置于形容词与名词之间。如:
她跟她妈妈一样做饭。
正:She is as clever a cook as her mother.
误:She is as a clever cook as her mother.
那本书供初学者看太难了。
正:It is too difficult a book for beginners.
误:It is too a difficult book for beginners.
那部电影很有趣,我们大家都喜欢看。
正:It’s so interesting a film that we all like it.
误:It’s so an interesting film that we all like it.
他不知道他自己犯了一个好大的错误。
正:He didn’t know how great a mistake he had made.
误:He didn’t know how a great mistake he had made.
3. 不定冠词与副词 quite, rather 连用时,不定冠词通常置于其后,但若其后的名词前有形容词修饰,则不定冠词放在 quite, rather 之前或之后均可以。如:
他是个大傻瓜。
正:He is rather a fool.
误:He is a rather fool.
但是,英语可说:It is quite a [a quite] good book. 因为,book 前有形容词修饰。
