问题: The a 互换

The lion is kingof beasts.

可不可以用A lion is king of beasts。

解答:

The lion is king of beasts.用the是指狮子这一类动物。
如:The cat is a docile animal.
其实也可以这样表达:A cat is a docile animal.
或者:Cats are docile animals.

这里,可以表达成:
A lion is king of beasts
或者:Lions are king of beasts.

另外,注意一下,为什么是king of beasts,而不是the king of beasts?
职位、头衔的词,如king,captain,president,chairman 等之前的the可以省略。
如:He is (the) president of United States.
