有关英语冠词的九个高频考点
(3) 用于整十的复数数词前:表示几十年代。如:
This took place in the 1930s. 这事发生在(20世纪)30年代。
I was working in Singapore in the 60’s. 在60年代我在新加坡工作。
(4) 用于比较级前:用于“the+比较级,the+比较级”结构中表示“越……就越……”。如:
—Do you want a big house? 你想买一栋大房子吗?
—Yes, the bigger the better. 是的,越大越好。
—But the smaller it is, the less it will cost us to heat. 可是,房子越小,花的取暖费就越少。
有时还可用于比较级前强调结构。如:
If that is the case, all the better. 如果事实是那样,那就更好了。
If you are able to come, so much the better. 如果你能来,那就更好了。
(5) 用于单位名词前表示标准:即用于“单位词”(hour, day, month, year, dozen, gallon, ton, yard等)前表示标准,相当于汉语的“按”“论”“每”等。如:
The worker was paid by the day. 工人按日付酬。
Do you sell eggs by the kilo or by the dozen? 鸡蛋怎么卖,论公斤,还是论打?
但是,by weight(按重量)习惯上不用冠词。如:
Bananas are usually sold by weight. 香蕉通常按重量卖。
