    Rewrite the sentence and correct the mistake. There's only ONE error.How many letter did you write yesterday?

    Rewrite the sentence and correct the mistake. There's only ONE error.She was at the bank a hour ago.

    Explanation
    The original sentence contains an error in the article used before the word "hour." Instead of "a," it should be "an" because the word "hour" starts with a vowel sound. Therefore, the correct sentence should be "She was at the bank an hour ago."

    • An

    Correct Answer
    A. The

    • Much

    • A few

    • Any

    Correct Answer
    A. A few
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "a few" because it indicates that the students had a small number of questions about the grammar lesson. Using "much" would imply that they had a large number of questions, while "any" suggests that they had no questions at all. "A little" is used to describe uncountable nouns, so it would not be appropriate in this context.

    A. The
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "The" because it is used to refer to a specific person or thing, in this case, the baby that belongs to the speaker's brother. "A" would be used if the speaker was referring to any baby in general, while "Some" would imply that there are multiple babies. "An" is used before words that start with a vowel sound, but "baby" does not start with a vowel sound.

    • An

    • X (no article)

    Correct Answer
    A. X (no article)
    Explanation
    The question is asking why "no article" is necessary for the given sentence. In this case, "food" is a non-countable noun, so it does not require an article. Non-countable nouns refer to things that cannot be counted or separated into individual units. In this context, "food" is a general concept and not a specific or countable item, so it does not need an article before it.
