<語(yǔ)法分析>
個(gè)體名詞如school, prison, market, hospital, bed, class和court等直接位于某些介詞后,當(dāng)表示該名詞的深層意義時(shí),不用冠詞。當(dāng)bike, car, bus, train, boat, ship和plane等詞與by連用,表示一種交通手段時(shí),不用冠詞,但是當(dāng)這些名詞特指某一種交通工具時(shí),則要與冠詞連用。在月份、星期、季節(jié)、三餐等的名詞前,通常不加冠詞,如有描繪性修飾語(yǔ)時(shí),可加冠詞。兩個(gè)名詞各指不同的人、事和概念時(shí),要用冠詞。兩個(gè)名詞如指同一個(gè)人、同一物時(shí),后一個(gè)名詞可不用冠詞。
