Hello,
Do anyone knows how to use select.exe in MS-DOS to install MS-DOS onto hard disk, and how to make system the hard disk.

"and how to make system the hard disk."
Say again?
Do you have some compelling reason for wanting to install those very limited (& nearly 20 year old) DOS versions? They are operating systems themselves, not programs you can install under WinXP - although (with some effort) you could set up a multiboot system - but one wonders "why?"
Resist the temptation to close your request for help with semantically-null questions like “Can anyone help me?”

3.3 is OK, but I would not touch 4.x with a barge pole.
I never used select.exe.

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
