GRAMMAR

Use of Articles 

1. You have come across the use of articles ‘a’, ‘an’, and ‘the’ in the lesson. The tasks in the textbook give you the idea that the use of ‘the’ with proper noun carries a special meaning. Read the following paragraph from the speech you have read above. The articles are missing in the paragraph. With the help of your partner, fill in the blanks. 

The weapons of  the world war were: violence, brute force, political and military moves, and counter moves. As a result of the churning of the ocean, the  world has emitted poison. That poison is spreading all over and there is none to swallow it.  The countries which were free have managed to digest it somewhat, but we, who have just attained our freedom, it is hard to do the same. Therefore, those who think that having attained freedom they have attained everything, have really attained nothing! the freedom that we have won is yet to be consolidated.

2. Which article most frequently occurs in the passage? Why is it so? Can you replace it with some other article? Why/Why not? Discuss with your peers and make notes.

The article 'the' has occured most frequently in the passage. we cannot replace it with any other article because 'the' is used with specific noun and other articles (a,an) are used for non-specific or non-paticular nouns.

3. Fill in the blanks with suitable articles.

(a) A boy and a girl were shopping in a market. The boy was from Kerala and the girl was from Nagaland.

(b) Can you turn off the light?
