Why practice Articles (a/an/the/zero) exercises?
These articles exercises guide you from the basics to confident mastery. Start with a or an exercises (A1) to choose the right indefinite article, then learn when to use a/an for jobs and first mentions. Progress to the definite article 'the' for known and unique things (A2), and discover when English uses no article at all. At B1, tackle tricky contrasts like 'school' vs 'the school' and definite and indefinite articles with places. Finally, practise mixed a, an, the or no article exercises at B2 level.
