2651
They reached . . . . . . . . end of the corridor and turned left.
The noun 'end' becomes definite when a unique spatial point within a known context is intended. The definite article signals this unique location. An indefinite article would be nonspecific and inappropriate. Thus, 'the end' is correct.
2652
He searched for . . . . . . . . information online before the interview.
When 'information' is used in a general, uncountable sense, no article is needed. It does not refer to a specific, identifiable set of facts. 'The information' would imply specific content previously known. Indefinite articles do not pair with uncountable nouns in this way.
2653
She delivered . . . . . . . . lecture on phonology to first-year students.
The noun 'lecture' starts with a consonant sound, so 'a' is correct. It is introduced for the first time, warranting an indefinite article. 'The' would imply a specific, previously known lecture. 'An' would be phonetically wrong.
2654
They rented . . . . . . . . car for the weekend trip to the countryside.
The noun 'car' begins with a consonant sound and is mentioned for the first time, so 'a' is appropriate. 'An' would not fit phonetically. 'The' would suggest a specific car identified earlier. Hence, 'a car' is correct.
2655
He looked at me with . . . . . . . . expression of disbelief.
The noun 'expression' begins with a vowel sound, necessitating 'an'. The expression is newly introduced and non-specific. 'A' would be phonetically incorrect. 'The' would imply a particular expression already known.
2656
She found . . . . . . . . error in the dataset and corrected it immediately.
The noun 'error' begins with a vowel sound, so 'an' is required. The error is introduced for the first time, supporting the indefinite article. 'A' would conflict with phonetics. 'The' would indicate a previously identified error.
2657
They arrived at . . . . . . . . airport two hours early for security checks.
In travel contexts, 'the airport' typically refers to the specific airport relevant to the situation, which is understood by both parties. This situational definiteness licenses the definite article. Using 'a' would imply any airport, which is not intended. Therefore, 'the airport' is suitable.
2658
He is writing . . . . . . . . thesis on article usage in academic English.
In academic contexts, 'a thesis' is standard when first introducing the work. The noun begins with a consonant sound, supporting 'a'. 'The thesis' would suggest a specific, previously mentioned thesis. Hence, 'a thesis' fits.
2659
She gave me . . . . . . . . one-time code to access the portal.
Although 'one' begins with the letter 'o', it starts with the consonant 'w' sound. Therefore, 'a' is correct. 'An' would be phonetically incorrect. The code is first mentioned, so an indefinite article is appropriate.
2660
. . . . . . . . water in the reservoir has dropped significantly.
The prepositional phrase 'in the reservoir' specifies which water is meant, making it definite. Thus, 'the water' is required. Without 'the', the referent would be overly general. Indefinite articles are not used with uncountable nouns here.
