冠词的用法总结 一、不定冠词(a/an)的用法:
a用在辅音音素开头的单词前,an 用于元音音素开头的单词前。

2、 表示一类人或事物之一,译成汉语是常有“一”。 Mr Zhang is an expert on DNA. The novel is written by a boy.
3、 用来概括整体,表示一类人或事物,译成汉语时一般不带“一”,与any接近。 A rose is the symbol of love. A dolphin is friendly to man.

gether. 物以类聚
The people and the army are of a family. 军民一家

可以用a/an.

E、 季节、月份、星期几、三餐等名词前一般不用冠词,但前面有修饰语时可以用a/an。
