［誤］sometimes my parents come to school to see me.
［正］sometimes my parents come to the school to see me.
［析］有些名詞被用作其本身原來所含目的時不加冠詞，如：go to school上學，leave school(輟學)，after school(放學)，但如果當建筑物講時應加冠詞，如例句中其父母來校不是上學，而是看望孩子，則要加定冠詞。又如，he was in hospital for two days.(他在醫院住院兩天了。)而：he went to the hospital to see his mother.他去醫院看望他的母親。

［誤］the police caught the thief by his arm.
［正］the police caught the thief by the arm.
［析］這是英文表達法與中文的明顯不同之處，也是初學者極易忽視之處。在英語中的某些動詞，如：catch(抓)，take(拿)，strike (打),pat(拍)，hit(擊)，hold(握)，pull(拉)…動詞后應加人，再加介詞on, by, in, with…之后要加定冠詞，再加人體的某一部位。這時的定冠詞千萬不要換作his, her, their, 等詞。
