二、冠词的几种用法 冠词是最典型的限定词，下面简单介绍一下它们的用法。 1. 第一次提及某人或某物时用不定冠词。第二次提及用定冠词。 如： He ordered a book some time ago. The book has now arrived. 他前些时候订购的书，现已经到达。

2. 定冠词与单数可数名词搭配以及不 定冠词与单数可数名词搭配可表示 类别，也就是泛指一类人或物。如： Galileo claimed that he had invented the telescope. 伽利略声称他发明了望远镜。 An ox is a useful animal. 公牛是有用的动物。 My brother is planning to be a lawyer. 我的兄弟打算成为一名律师。

3. 定冠词可特指一类人或物中的具体对 象。如： He bought a house. I’ve been to the house. 他买了幢房子。我去过那幢房子。 （指上文提到过的人或事） We own a dog and a cat. The dog is brown, and the cat is white. 我们有一只猫和一只狗。狗是棕色的， 猫是白色的。 （特指上文提到过的狗和猫。）

4. 定冠词可表示语境特指。即语境特 指不是建立在上下文基础上的照应 关系，而是建立在谈话双方共有的知 识上。比如主妇对丈夫说，I’m just back from the market. 在这种语境 中，听话人一定会理解the market 指 某个平时常去的市场。又例如： Take the medicine. 把药吃了。 （特指双方都明白的物品。）
