In this case, "spettacoli" is a masculine plural noun starting with a consonant followed by a vowel, so it requires the article "gli" before it.

    ____ università

    Explanation
    The given phrase "____ università" is incomplete and lacks context. However, based on the word "la" provided as the answer, it can be inferred that the missing word should be feminine. In Italian, "la" is the definite article used before feminine singular nouns. Therefore, the correct completion of the phrase would be "la università", which translates to "the university" in English.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    ____ serpente

    Explanation
    The question is asking for the correct form of the word "serpente" in Italian. In Italian, nouns have gender and number, and "serpente" is a singular masculine noun. The definite article "il" is used before singular masculine nouns in Italian, so the correct answer is "il".

    Rate this question:

    Explanation
    The given answer "la" is the correct answer because it is the only complete and coherent word in the given question. The other parts of the question are incomplete and do not make sense. Therefore, "la" is the only logical answer.
