1.冬天很寒冷。

It's very cold in the winter. 错误

It's very cold in winter.正确

泛指冬天时，winter前面一般不加冠词。同样，“在春天”应说in spring，“在夏天”应说in summer，“在秋天”in autumn是 。有时四季前面有关系代词修饰或特定指示的对象时，也与定冠词连用。如：Fruit must be picked in the autumn. 必须在秋天摘水果。

Can you play the football? 错误

Can you play footballs? 错误

Can you play football? 正确

踢足球应说play footbal，这里football作“足球运动”解，是不可数名词，前面不用冠词，也不用复数形式。同样，“打篮球”应说play basketball，打排球应说play volleyball，打乒乓球应说play ping pong/table tennis

14.我想买半公斤肉。

I want to buy half kilo of meat. 错误

I want to buy a half kilo of meat.正确

A number of students went to the park today. 许多学生都去了公园

20.序数词前常与定冠词 the连用，但有时也与不定冠词a(an) 连用，它们有什么区别？

序数词前用the 侧重顺序，序数词前用 a (an)不侧重顺序，表示“再一”“又一”的意思，例如：There’s a third boy. He’s very tall. 又有一个男孩（前面已出现两个男孩），他个子很高。

Mr. and Mrs. Shute had a daughter called Jane. Then they had a second child－a son.舒特夫妇有一个女儿叫珍。后来他们又有了一个孩子──儿子。

on the earth的意思是“在地球上” on earth 的意思是“在世上”，相当于in the world，另外on earth还可作“究竟” “到底” “全然”解，多用于疑问句，否定句或最高级后面加强语气。例如

That means that in about 600 years, there will only be standing room on the earth.

那就是说大约过600年以后，地球上只有立足之地了。
