Articles confusion
Hi,
on a website - usingenglish.com
these 2 sentences goes on like:
- I am against....(no article)...capital punishment.
- He never listens to ..(no article)..... classical music.
however,in other sentence, 'the' is used:
- I don't believe in ...the... death penalty for any crime.
I am not able to understand the difference between both sentences.
