I'm editing a children's book about wonders of the World. In this book, the authors are not native speakers(they are XACT BOOK(India)), and they wrote these specific places without article "the":     -It is Taj Mahal.      -It is Tower of Pisa.   At first, I thought it's okay, but there are some pages has article "the":     -It is the Great Pyramid of Giza.      -It is the Temple of Artemis.   These sentences really make me confused. After researching, this website- - gives me some advice:     Do use the before:           names of rivers, oceans, and seas: the Nile, the Pacific          points on the globe: the Equator, the North Pole          geographical areas: the Middle East, the West     deserts, forests, gulfs, and peninsulas: the Sahara, the Persian Gulf, the Black Forest, the Iberian Peninsula      Unfortunately, I'm still not sure that adding "the" before each wonder's name is a right choice. Should I add article "the" or not? I already posted this problem in , but I'm still in vain.

Possible Duplicate:          I'm an EFL (English as a foreign language) teacher and I haven't been able to come up with a good principle for which preposition to use after get when referring to transportation.  Some examples:   Get in:   a car/taxi/van/truck, etc.  Get on:   a bus/plane/bike/truck, etc.    How can one choose whether to use in or on? Note that in some cases, such as the example with truck, either preposition is possible but the choice affects the meaning.  I've been telling my students that there is no rule, so they just have to memorize which preposition to use, but I'm really hoping I'm wrong.  This question would be better suited for the upcoming  Stack Exchange, but it hasn't entered beta yet. More .

Would you please tell me which tenses are suitable here?  ... the sun (KEEP) burning forever? Sometime in the next twenty-five years, a spaceship with a human crew (LAND) on Mars.  My grammar book gives only two options: &quot;to be going to + verb&quot; and &quot;will + verb&quot;. But I wonder the reason why I should avoid using the &quot;continuous present&quot; tense.
