常犯錯誤︰
Noun 前有時會配上冠詞(Article)，但不同情況會有不同用法。
基本守則︰
| Type of noun | Article 冠詞 | Examples |
| countable noun | a / an / the / plurals | 1. as wise as an owl 2. as wise as the owl 3. as wise as owls |
| uncountable noun | 不用加上冠詞(Article) | As sweet as sugar (不可數) |
可數名詞 (countable noun) 可以配上不同的冠詞(Article) ，那麼我們可以如何判斷？
| 例子 | 使用情境 | 解釋 | |
| Definite Article (the) – 特定的冠詞 | As wise as the owl | 指特定的、著名的貓頭鷹（通常來自故事） | 與大家都知道的特定貓頭鷹一樣聰明。 |
| Indefinite Article (a) – 不特定的冠詞 | As wise as an owl | 與任何一隻貓頭鷹相比（人們對貓頭鷹的典型印象） | 像任何一隻典型的貓頭鷹一樣聰明。 |
| No Article – 不使用冠詞 | As wise as owls | 對所有貓頭鷹均真實擁有的特質 | 像所有貓頭鷹一樣聰明，而不僅僅是一隻。 |
