Answer 2

1. Do you think people should be sent to prison for shoplifting? Explanation: In this sentence, "people" is used in a general sense to refer to individuals in general. "Prison" is a generic term for a correctional facility, and "shoplifting" is a general term for the act of stealing from a store. Therefore, the correct variants are "people," "prison," and "shoplifting."

2. Did you go to college or university? Explanation: This sentence depends on the context and the educational system being referred to. If the speaker is referring to the American educational system, where "college" and "university" are distinct entities, the correct variant would be "college" or "university" based on the specific institution attended. If the speaker is referring to a different educational system where "college" and "university" are used interchangeably, either variant would be correct. The article "a" or "the" is not necessary in this context.

3. In which part of your capital city is the university? Explanation: The sentence implies that there is only one university in the capital city being referred to. In such a case, "the" is used before "university" to indicate a specific institution.
