Инструкция:
In the given sentences, the choice of articles depends on the specificity or uniqueness of the nouns they modify.

In sentence 1, "The Atlantic" refers to a specific ocean, so we use the definite article "the". It is unique and well-known enough that a definite article is appropriate.

In sentence 2, "The Nile" is a specific river, so "the" is used.

In sentence 3, "the British Museum" is a specific museum, and "London" is a specific city. Therefore, "the" is used to indicate their uniqueness.

1. Russia is a country in northern Asia and eastern Europe.
2. Lake Baikal is the largest freshwater lake in Eurasia.
3. What is the largest country in the world?

Инструкция:
In these sentences, "Russia" and "Lake Baikal" are proper names. We do not typically use articles with proper nouns unless there is a specific reason for it. Therefore, no article is necessary in sentences 1 and 2.

In sentence 3, there is a question asking about which country is the largest in the world. Since it is referring to a specific thing (the largest country), the definite article "the" is used.

1. They traveled to Greece by car.
2. He has been in the hospital for a month.
3. We got up at dawn.

Инструкция:
These sentences do not require articles because the nouns are not specific or unique.

1. In the first sentence, "Greece" is a country in general and not specified, so no article is needed.
2. In the second sentence, "the hospital" refers to a general hospital and doesn"t need an article.
3. In the third sentence, "dawn" is a general time of day and doesn"t require an article.
