表示“选举”,主要指选举某人担任某职位。若所涉及的职位只有一个(即独一无二),则通常不用冠词。如:
We elected him chairman. 我们选他当主席。
They elected Nixon President. 他们选尼克松当总统。
除以上最通常的表达外,类似以下说法也可以:
我们选他当主席。
正:We elected him (as) chairman.
正:We elected him (to be) chairman.
正:We elected him (our) chairman.
正:We elected him (as our) chairman.
有时也有用定冠词的情况(但省略该冠词更常见)。如:
Who is (the) captain of your team? 谁是你们队的队长?
He was elected (the) President of the United States. 他被选为美国总统。
【注】类似下面的句子通常要用冠词:
They elected a new president (a new mayor). 他们选了一位新总统(新市长)。
