Answer 2

Answer:

1. I met a European yesterday.

2. Though he is poor still he helps others.

Explanation:

An article is a one of the ‘determiner’ that determines the ‘quantity of a noun’. There are three types of articles- ‘a’, ‘an’, and ‘the’. In this sentence European though begins with a vowel however has a pronunciation of you which is a ‘consonant sound’. Hence the article a will be used before European.

In the second sentence, though itself creates a condition therefore using but with it is grammatically wrong. Therefore still is used instead of ‘but’.
