III. Choose the correct article. Edinburgh, (1) a/the/- capital of Scotland, is one of (2) a/the/- most interesting towns in (3) a/the/- British Isles. People often call it the Ath- ens of (4) a/the/- North. There are (5) a/the/- few reasons for that. First, (6) a/the/- whole district of Edinburgh, called (7) a/the/- New Town, dates back to (8) a/the/- 18th century and is (9) a/the/-fine exam- ple of (10) a/the/- neoclassical architecture. Secondly, Edinburgh was also (11) a/the/- very important.place intellectually at (12) a/the/- time of (13) a/the/- Enlightenment. It was (14) a/the/- home of David Hu- me, the philosopher, and many other leading thinkers of (15) a/the/- Age of Reason. There is, however, one crucial difference between Edin- burgh and Athens - (16) a/the/- climate! PLEASE NOTE: The Athens ofthe North' (sentence 2) is not a geographical term. It's a metaphor which suggests that in the 18th century Edinburgh was unique, 'the only one'. That's why in this sentence there is the definite are ticle in front ofr'Athens'. In the last sentence 'Athens' relates to the name of a real town, It is a geographical term and therefore there is no article in front GD
