Correct: Regardless of whether it is in the subject or object position, we use “are” when “you” is the antecedent.

With Option B, “a” is changed to “the quickest.” The sentence that has been fixed is:

“After work, I use my computer to find the quickest way home to avoid the terrible traffic in the city.”

Let’s now examine the alternative possibilities:

A) The answer is “my computer”

Option A is already accurate. Using “my computer” is appropriate in this situation since it conveys possession.

B) “the terrible”

Option C is the right one. “The” is added before “terrible,” which is appropriate in this situation.

D) is “the city”

Option D is the right one. The definite article “the” is used before “city,” which is suitable in this situation.

Correct: A singular verb is used when discussing a mathematical fact.

Option B is accurate since it indicates a specific hotel and a specific geographic location by using the definite article “the” before “Hudson River” and the indefinite article “a” before “hotel.”

Correct: We use a singular verb when the subject is a fraction of a singular noun (the apple).

Correct: We use a plural verb when the subject is plural (a number of children).

This is the reason:

“an autobiography”: Since we’re not referring to a particular autobiography in advance, the indefinite article “an” is used here. We are requesting any available autobiographies.

“; any autobiography will do”: This statement emphasizes the request’s lack of specificity by making clear that any autobiography will be acceptable.

Correct: We use a singular verb because the army is regarded as a singular entity.

Yes, we use a plural verb because glasses is a plural noun.

Option D is fixed by eliminating the “‘s” from “father’s.” because it is grammatically incorrect.

The sentence that has been fixed is:

“First, I could not recognize, but later I realized that he was a friend of my father.”

Since Option B uses the word “home” without an article, it is accurate. “Home” is regarded as an adverb in this sense, signifying the location or course. The phrase “get home” is idiomatic and refers to reaching one’s home.

Correct: We use a singular verb because a herd of cattle is regarded as a single entity.

Correct: We use a singular verb because the subject “the blind” is regarded as a singular entity.

Because Option A indicates a specific answer by using the definite article “the” before “answer,” it is correct. The indefinite article “a” is also used before “new proposal,” implying that any new proposal is being suggested.

Option B is fixed by substituting “a number of” for “the number of” since the sentence alludes to an ambiguous or undefined number of programs, and the indefinite article “a” is suitable in this situation. The sentence that has been fixed is:

“I like to play music on the piano and listen to various radio programs.”

Let us now examine the alternative possibilities:

A) “listening”

Option A is already accurate. This is a suitable use of the gerund “listening” in this situation.

C) “on the”

Option C is already accurate. It is suitable in this situation and denotes the preposition “on” followed by the definite article “the.”

D) “the piano”

Option D is already accurate. It refers to a particular piano, so it is appropriate to use “the piano” with an article in this context.

Because Option D indicates a non-specific knock on the door by using the indefinite article “a” before “knock,” it is correct. Without naming a specific knock, the sentence describes the sound of one.

Correct: We use a singular verb because the jury is regarded as a single entity.

Option D contains the mistake since “the” should come before “little red book” as a definite article.

Consequently, the following would be the updated sentence:

“The other is the world of faith, of the development of Mao thought throughout China, with the Little Red Book.”

Let’s now examine the alternatives:

A) “The other” is accurate; it denotes a separate group or thing.

B) “the world”: This is accurate; it refers to a broad idea.

C) “the development” – This is accurate since “development” refers to a particular topic under discussion.

Here’s why option A is right:

Articles that are definitive: In both parts of the sentence, “the” is used correctly before “truth” because it alludes to a particular, preexisting notion of truth.

Indefinite article: To introduce a general example of a non-specific oyster, “an” is used before “oyster” in the first section.

Definite article: It makes a coherent connection by using “the” before “oyster” in the second part to refer back to the particular oyster that was mentioned in the first part.

This is the reason:

Because it introduces the match for the first time, “a match” uses the indefinite article “a” to imply that it’s any match rather than a particular one.

The phrase “the fire” makes use of the definite article “the” since it alludes to a particular fire that has either been mentioned or is suggested by the context; this is most likely the fire that was burning when Jack became alarmed.

The reason Option A is correct is that it uses the indefinite article “a” before “sound.” The indefinite article is appropriate when describing an unknown or unspecified sound.

Option B is accurate since it adheres to correct capitalization and punctuation guidelines. The breakdown is as follows:

The appropriate punctuation for the opening phrase “When the curtain rises” is a comma.

It is appropriate to use “the curtain” with the definite article “the” before “curtain.”

The comma that follows the phrase “the stage is bare” preserves correct punctuation.

Let’s now examine the alternative possibilities:

Correct: We use a singular verb when the subject is a fraction of a singular noun (the acid).

Correct: We use a plural verb when the subject is plural (many reporters).

Because Option C preserves appropriate article usage and subject-verb agreement, it is the right choice. The breakdown is as follows:

The singular subject “Sovereignty in the Muslim world” appropriately employs the definite article “the” before “Muslim world.”

It is also appropriate in this context to introduce the additional phrases “West or East” without the definite articles.

Option C’s revised sentence is grammatically correct and effectively communicates the idea that sovereignty in the Muslim world—both in the East and the West—was precarious.

Correct: We use a plural verb when the subject is plural (he and his brother).

Option B is appropriate for the reasons listed below:

Article Usage: It indicates the destination by using the preposition “to” before “jail,” negating the need for an extra article. The English expression “sent to jail” is idiomatic.

Correct Syntax: The sentences are grammatically correct and have a clear structure.

Correct: A singular verb is used when the subject is “neither of those officers.”

Being a singular entity, “The United States” necessitates the use of the singular verb “has.” The second sentence’s usage of “do” appropriately corresponds to the plural subject “the Philippines.” Option C does not agree with the plural subject “the Philippines” and repeats “has” for both parts of the sentence.

True: We use a singular verb because bad news is regarded as a singular noun.
