　　冠詞主要考查不定冠詞和定冠詞的混淆。還有的是考查一些固定搭配，例如on the other hand, for instance / example(中間沒有an)等。

　　考點解析：

　　例1：With occasional breaks for war, the rates of death

　　and infection in the Europe and America dropped steadily S5._________

　　through the 19th and 20th centuries.

　　例2：Their experiments have shown that reading disorders

　　are most likely the result of what is, in an effect, faulty wiring S3. __________

　　in the brain—not laziness, stupidity or a poor home environment.

　　解析：in effect / fact是固定搭配，表示陳述事實，意為“事實上，實際上”。

　　例3：Most American businesses are open five days a week. American

　　school children attend the school five days a week as well 2._________

　　解析：attend school意為“上學(xué)”，而不是特指“學(xué)�！�，所以將the 去掉。相類似的詞還有g(shù)o to bed, in hospital(住院)，in the hospital(在醫(yī)院)等。

　　例4：Every week hundreds of CVs(簡歷) land on our desks.
