Answer 2

1. "A man and a woman were sitting opposite me. The man was American, but I think the woman was British."

In this sentence, we use the indefinite article "a" before "man" and "woman" because we are referring to any man and any woman in general. We don't have specific knowledge about which man and woman are being referred to.

2. "The highest mountain in Africa is Kilimanjaro."

In this sentence, we use the definite article "the" before "highest mountain" and "Africa" because we are referring to a specific mountain (Kilimanjaro) and a specific continent (Africa).

3. "The film wasn't very good, but I liked the music."

In this sentence, we use the definite article "the" before "film" and "music" because we are referring to specific film and specific music that the speaker is talking about.

4. "What is the longest river in the world?"

In this sentence, we use the definite article "the" before "longest river" and "world" because we are referring to a specific river (the longest one) and the entire world.

5. "There were no chairs, so we had to sit on the floor."

In this sentence, we don't use any articles before "chairs" and "floor" because we are talking about chairs and floor in a general sense, without specifying any particular chairs or floor.
