摘要:  第十四章 总复习的例子   在这一章,我们将给很多简短的文章,每一段文章的后面,我们都会有详细的解释,相信这些解释将有助于读者对于文法的了解。   (1)   Dear Mother:   I arrived at th Taipei Train Station around one o'clock in the afternoon yesterday. My friend, Mr. Chen, greeted me in the station. We took a taxi to go d

  “I miss you and the food you cooked for me.”

  等四个句子都是目前存在的事实,所以要用现在式。

  现在我们不妨看一下冠词的情形,我们可以看到很多地方都用了the,如:

  the Taipei Train Station

  the afternoon

  the station

  the university

  the dormitory cafetervia

  the dormitory

  the food

  the food you cooked for me

  各位读者一定可以注意到在the后面的名词都有所指,举例来说,the university指那所作者要去念的大学,他的妈妈知道他所说的是那一所大学。The dormitory指那间他已搬进去住的宿舍。凡是有所指的名词前面,原则上都应该加the.

  哪里用了“a”呢?注意,我们用了两次

  a taxi

  a very old one

  读者应该不难看出为什么这里我们不能用the,而一定要用a。
