有a在，把帽戴；a不在，o，e戴。

yǒu "a" zài, bǎ mào dài; "a" bú zài, "o, e" dài,
yào shì "i , u" yì qǐ lái, shuí zài hòu miɑn shuí lái dài. 
If there is "a" in pinyin, the tone should be marked on "a",
If there is no "a", the tones should be marked on "o" or "e".
If "i" and "u" appear in pinyin at the same time, the tone needs
