Grammar worksheet for practicing the correct use of articles "a," "an," and "the" in English sentences.

Since I can't view or access images directly, I can't see the specific task or image you've uploaded. However, based on your description, it appears to be a grammar exercise focused on using the correct articles — a, an, or the — in sentences.

Let me help you solve this type of problem by explaining the rules and then completing the sentences as they likely appear in the worksheet.

---

🔤 Rules for Using Articles:

1. "a" is used before a singular noun that starts with a consonant sound.
- Example: a book, a university (even though "university" starts with a 'u', it's pronounced with a consonant sound /y/).

2. "an" is used before a singular noun that starts with a vowel sound.
- Example: an apple, an hour (note: "hour" starts with a silent 'h', so it sounds like "our" — a vowel sound).

3. "the" is used when referring to something specific or previously mentioned.
- Example: The sun is bright. (There’s only one sun.)

Now, let's go through each sentence and fill in the correct article (a, an, or the) based on these rules.
