高考英语语法: a与an的用法
a用于辅音前;an用于元音前 。一般说来 , 元音字母发元音 , 辅音字母发辅音 , 但需请注意以下3点:1. 拼写以辅音字母开头读音却以元音开头的单词hour, honest, honor等单词的拼写虽然以辅音字母h开头 , 但其读音却以元音开头 , 因此 , 前面要用an 。可熟记下面这句话:An hour ago, an honest man accepted an honorable task. (一小时前 , 一位诚实的人接受了一项光荣的任务 。)2. 拼写以元音字母开头读音却以辅音开头的单词useful, university, usual, European, united, one-eyed, one-way等单词的拼写虽然以元音字母开头 , 但其读音却以辅音开头 , 因此 , 前面要用a 。可熟记下面这句话:In a university, a European and a one-eyed man walk along a one-way road with a usual tool. This is a usual thing. (在一所大学里 , 有一个欧洲人和一个独眼龙拿着有用的工具沿着一条单行道行走 , 这是件平常的事 。)如:Five years ago her brother was ________ university student of ________ physics. (上海卷)A. a; theB. an; theC. an; /D. a; /【分析】答案选D 。因为university是以辅音[j]开头的要用a , 排除B和C;physics是学科名词 , 前面不用冠词 。3. 英文字母前用a还是用an的问题在26个英文字母中 , a, e, i, o, f, h, l, m, n, r, s, x等12个字母的读音是以元音开头的 , 其余字母则是以辅音开头的 。如:Please pay attention to your spelling. You have dropped ________ ”m” here. (全国卷)A. anB. theC. /D. a【分析】答案选A 。因为字母m的发音是以元音[e]开头的 , 所以用an;这里的an的意义与one相当 , 表示“一个” 。
