在通常情况下,表示“……的首都或首府,要用定冠词。如:

Paris is the capital of France. 巴黎是法国的首都。

Mexico City is the capital of Mexico. 墨西哥城是墨西哥的首都。

Austin is the capital of Texas. 奥斯汀是得克萨斯州的首府。

Kingston, as you probably know, is the capital of Jamaica. 你可能知道,金士敦是牙买加的首都。

The capital of England is London. In the past it was Winchester. 英国现在的首都是伦敦,过去是温切斯特。

网友说的这个高考题句子,用不用冠词均可,这与其前的介词 as 有关,引用两个牛津词典的例句供参考:

介词 as 的这种用法在后接独一无二的职位名词时,尤其常见(有人认为必须用零冠词,其实用定冠词是可以的):

It’s unusual to have a goalkeeper as (the) captain of a football team. 让守门员当足球队的队长是很少见的。(剑桥词典)
