Paragraph AAlmost half of all grandparents lose all contact with their grandchildren after a separation or divorce, according to a new report. It found that the forty-two per cent never see their grandchildren again after the break-up. Even more — sixty-seven per cent — are prevented from providing any sort of childcare or taking their grandchildren on outings, even when they had done so regularly in the past.

1. In Paragraph A, the second sentence mentions 'the break-up'. What does this refer to? Why is 'the' used, not 'a'?​

Jawaban dan Penjelasan

Berikut ini adalah pilihan jawaban terbaik dari pertanyaan diatas.

Jawaban:

There is a reason beyond such question. The term 'The break-up' is used to refer 'the divorce/separation.' Meanwhile, in that term, the article 'the' instead of 'a' because it refers to specific break-up case, not the general one.

Penjelasan:

The word 'the break-up' refers to the situation of being separated. However, in English, it is recommended to use a pronoun or the synonym of such word to avoid sounding less natural in English language.

Meanwhike the article 'the' is used to refers to the something particular mentioned in the text, which is break-up in marriage, not in a teenage pre-marital relationship. if one uses 'a break-up' it means general break-up, including in relationship, friendship and family relation, which is not exactly suitable for the context above.
