Hi all,

Could you please help me with articles? I´m not sure about it in following sentences:

1) The life of Robert MacGregor was a source of inspiration for Sir Walter Scott and Daniel Defoe, and also a film was based on his story.

2) Nowadays, the Centre contains a museum exposing the legendary anvil, different shops offering Scottish souvenirs and typical products of the country, (no article) workshops, restaurants and a tourist information centre.

3) The castle and the surrounding Country Park offer a breathtaking view of the mountains.

4) The Home Farm is a fortified country mansion modified to a visitor centre and a restaurant.

5) The Oval Staircase, which is the Adam´s masterpiece, is probably the most astonishing part of the castle.

6) The staircase is decorated with the Corinthian and Ionic columns sustaining a colossal glassed-in cupola.

7) I would like to draw your attention to the gilt seats in the style of Louis XVI.


8) It is located in the industrial belt named after a well-developed area in the USA - Silicon Glen.


9) There are many museums and galleries worth visiting in Glasgow – the Museum of Transport, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, the geological site of Fossil Grove,
Pollok House, which is a gallery of Spanish painting, the Gallery of Modern Art or the People´s Palace – an ethnographic museum.


Thank you ;-)
