不定冠词
(1)不定冠词a和an的区别是:a用在以辅音开始的单词前面,an用在以元音开始的单词前面,如:
an island, an owl, an effective method, an old man, a fierce tiger, a university, etc.
注意要以单词发音的第一个音素为准,不要以拼写的第一个字母为依据,这就是为什么像university, unique, unified这些词,其前面用a而不用an的原因所在。

(误)An ears is an organ for listening.
(正)An ear is an organ for listening.
