Answer:

1. The

2. an; an

Explanation:

1. <u>The</u> boy slipped on the floor.

The should be used as the relevant article when the noun in the sentence is specific and the only one being referred to as is the case with the boy in this sentence.

2. There is<u> an</u> apple and <u>an</u> orange in the basket.

As both apple and orange begin with vowels or rather have a vowel like sound, the relevant article will be ''an'' because this is the article to be used when referring to vowels.

Why do you think the epic poem, Beowulf, has been around so long and continues to be read (and not just as an assignment in Engl
juin [17]

Beowulf has been around for so long and continues to be read for several reasons.

First, the poem provides excellent insight into Anglo-Saxon life and beliefs. In this way, the poem is interesting from a historical perspective.

Second, the poem also discusses universal themes such as life and death, good and evil, and sin and redemption. The people in the poem are unsure of an afterlife and belive fame to be the only immortality. Their quest for fame makes them not so different from many people today. Thus, even though the poem is about 1000 years old, it easily connects to modern readers.

Next, Beowulf is an interesting hero, who is proud but not arrogant -- before fighting Grendel, he knows he might die and says, "Fate will unwind as it must." Modern readers love stories about heroes, so it is not surprising that Beowulf is still read today.

Finally, the poem is a great tale of adventure featuring epic battles and fearsome monsters. The story reads more like a modern movie, yet another reason why the poem is still popular.

Ultimately, there are several reasons why Beowulf is still read today.
