冠词
1、nowadays ________ internet is becoming increasingly popular and new high speed broadband network was recently started.
a. a; the b. the; a c. a; a d. the; the
选b。本题主要考查冠词的用法。internet为特指对象；而一条高速的新宽带网为泛指，用不定代词a。
2、 the poet and pianist is going to give us a talk this afternoon.
a. a b. the c. 不填 d. an
选c。当and 并列的是同一事物、同一人或同一概念时，其后面的名词前不用冠词。若在pianist前加the，则是指the poet 和the pianist 两个人，而题目中的the poet and pianist 是指一个人，即这个人即是诗人又是钢琴家。
注意：冠词这里，不要忙于题海战术，也不要死记语法书上的那些规则，而是要在备考阶段多读，培养语感，再结合自己所学解题，这是很关键的。
