5. Fortunately, the bus did not overturn.

1. There is an article in this sentence. However, it should be noted that all the blanks do not require an article.
- In the English language, there are three articles. They are as follows-
- An
- A
- The
- 'An' is an article that is used before the vowels. There are five vowels in the English language, a, e, i, o, and u.
For example, an ant, an eggplant, an electrician, and so on.
- 'A' is an article that is used before the consonants. Consonants are all the English alphabets except the vowels.
For example, a plant, a tree, a yak, and so on.
- 'The' is an article that is used before objects that have already been mentioned and are being spoken about the particular object again. It is also used before universal truths and objects that are only one in the universe.
For example, the Sun, the museum, the Taj Mahal, and so on.
2. In this sentence, we were asked to remove very and add too. Thus, very has been removed and 'too' has been inserted right before the adjective, i.e., difficult.
3. The word that has been used above is a preposition.
- Prepositions are words that depict the time, distance, etc, of a subject or an object. It helps link subjects and develops a relationship between them.
- For example, The cat is under the table. Here, we understand that the subject i.e., the cat is under the table. Thus, we come to know about the cat's location.
- A very important point to be noted is multiple prepositions can be suitable for a case. For example, I am standing in front of/ behind/ beside the blue car parked beside/ opposite the candy shop. So you see, multiple prepositions can be used in some questions.
4. In the above solution, we see the usage of the present continuous tense.
- Tenses are words that signify or portray the time or tenure of an activity, event, or phenomenon.
- For example, It rained yesterday. Here, the word 'rained' is in the simple past tense.
- By this, we understand that the phenomenon or event that is being spoken about has already ended and thus, is in the past.
Thus, we understand that the action that is being spoken about in the question has already begun, and is still going on.
5. In this sentence the adverb i.e., 'fortunately' was asked to place. Thus, it was added at the beginning of the sentence.
