[amp_mcq option1=”the, no article” option2=”the, the” option3=”no article, the” option4=”no article, no article” correct=”option4″]
The correct answer is: David is going to the cinema but his father is going to church.
The article “the” is used before a specific noun. In this case, the cinema is a specific place, so we use the article “the”. The word “church” is not a specific place, so we do not use the article “the”.
Here are some examples of when we would use the article “the”:
- I went to the cinema last night.
- I saw the movie “The Lion King”.
- I live in the city.
Here are some examples of when we would not use the article “the”:
- I like to go to the movies.
- I like to watch movies.
- I live in a city.
In the sentence “David is going to the cinema but his father is going to church”, the cinema is a specific place, so we use the article “the”. The word “church” is not a specific place, so we do not use the article “the”.
