Место артикля в предложении

Артикль в английском языке обычно ставится перед существительным и относящимися к нему словами, при их наличии:
I see a shop.
Я вижу магазин.
It is a big European furniture shop.
Это большой европейский мебельный магазин.

Но некоторые такие слова могут стоять и перед артиклем:
Перед определенным артиклем the могут стоять определения all и both:
All the books in my room are torn.
Все книги в моей комнате изорваны.
Both the pens are not working.
Обе ручки не работают.

Перед неопределенным артиклем могут стоять слова what, such и quite:
What a loss!
Какая потеря!
You were such a clown yesterday.
Вчера ты выглядел таким клоуном.
It’s quite a long way.
Это довольно долгий путь.

Неопределенный артикль ставится после прилагательных в комбинации с наречиями too, as, so:
It is too long a way to go on foot.
Это слишком большой путь, чтобы идти пешком.
He is as good a sportsman as any man of his age.
Он такой же хороший спортсмен, как и любой другой мужчина его возраста.

Queen of Hearts — Starla Edney

Your love's so mysterious
Sealed with a kiss
My words so delirious
From the venom on your lips

You're begging me to stay
I should just walk away
Take this sword from my heart
Got me bleeding out
I'm not a player in your game

I'm the Queen of Hearts
The Queen of Hearts my baby
Don't you change the cards, you change the cards my baby
Cause' I tried and tried, but I'm moving on
And I love you and I love you, though you did me wrong
Cause' I'm the Queen of Hearts
The Queen of Hearts my baby

Never felt more and more alive, now that you're gone
I was the best that you ever had
You're asking where it all went wrong

You're begging me to stay
I should just walk away
Take this sword from my heart
Got me bleeding out
I'm not a player in your game

I'm the Queen of Hearts
The Queen of Hearts my baby
Don't you change the cards, you change the cards my baby
Cause' I tried and tried, but I'm moving on
And I love you and I love you, though you did me wrong
Cause' I'm the Queen of Hearts
The Queen of Hearts my baby

You're begging me to stay
I should just walk away

You're begging me to stay
I should just walk away
Take this sword from my heart
Got me bleeding out
I'm not a player in your game

I'm the Queen of Hearts
The Queen of Hearts my baby
Don't you change the cards, you change the cards my baby
Cause' I tried and tried, but I'm moving on
And I love you and I love you, though you did me wrong
Cause' I'm the Queen of Hearts

IELTS WRITING — Task 2 (Agree/Disagree)

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.
Question:
   Currently there is a trend towards the use of alternative forms of medicine. However, at best these methods are ineffective, and at worst they may be dangerous.

To what extent do you agree with this statement?
You should write at least 250 words.
Answer:
   Alternative medicine is not new. It is accepted that it pre-dates conventional medicine and it is still used by many people all over the world. I am unconvinced that it is dangerous, and feel that both alternative and conventional medicine can be useful.
   There are several reasons why the conventional medical community is often dismissive of alternatives. Firstly, there has been little scientific research into such medicine, so there is a scarcity of evidence to support the claims of their supporters. Furthermore, people often try such treatment because of recommendations from friends, and therefore come to therapist with a very positive attitude, which may be part of the reason for the cure. Moreover, these therapies are usually only useful for long-term, chronic conditions. Acute medical problems, such as accidental injury, often require more conventional methods.
   On the other hand, there remain strong arguments for the use of alternatives. Despite the lack of scientific proof, there is a lot of anecdotal evidence to suggest that these therapies work. In addition, far from being dangerous, they often have a few or no side effects, so the worst outcome would be no change. One of the strongest arguments for the effectiveness of alternative therapies in the West is that, whilst conventional medicine is available without charge, many people are prepared to pay considerable sums for the alternatives. If they were totally unhelpful, it would be surprising if this continued.
   I strongly believe that conventional medicine and alternative therapies can and should coexist. They have different strengths, and can both be used effectively to target particular medical problems. The best situation would be for alternative therapies to be used to support and complement conventional medicine.
