1. We are going to be late. Let's take a taxi, shall we? (use "a" since we are not referring to a specific taxi)
2. Is he going to Paris or to London next year? (use "to" since we are referring to the cities as destinations, no article needed)
3. The trip was very tiring and the train was three hours late. (use "the" since we are referring to a specific train that was mentioned before)
4. Would you like going by train or by air? (use "by" since we are referring to the mode of transportation, no article needed)
5. It was stuffy in the bus. The passengers were hot and angry. (use "the" since we are referring to specific passengers on the bus)
6. There was nobody at the station. Only a taxi driver was waiting for the rare passengers to take them to their hotels. (use "a" since we are not referring to a specific taxi driver, use "the" to specify the passengers mentioned in the previous sentence)
