tests a highly specific rule of article usage, often overlooked even by advanced learners. While "European Union" is a proper noun and generally takes no article, the adjective "European" here functions as a descriptor of a union that has a specific, established name. The pitfall lies in the implicit assumption that all adjectives preceding proper nouns require articles. The correct usage is indeed "The European Union" because "European" in this context is part of the established proper noun's identifier, not a general descriptive adjective. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they either suggest removing the correct article or incorrectly add articles where they are not needed. The sentence as presented already uses the correct article. The question is framed to identify a *pitfall* that the course would address, implying a common misunderstanding. The common misunderstanding is often about whether "European" here necessitates an article. The course would clarify that "The European Union" is the fixed, correct form. Question: "The Complete CPE Grammar Pitfalls Course 2026" dedicates a module to the accurate deployment of phrasal verbs. Consider the sentence: "The committee decided to put off the meeting until next week." A learner is asked to identify a potential pitfall related to the transitivity of the phrasal verb and its object placement. Which of the following is the MOST accurate analysis and correction?
The phrasal verb "put off" is transitive, and the object "the meeting" is correctly placed; Correction: "The committee decided to put the meeting off until next week."
The phrasal verb "put off" is intransitive and cannot take an object; Correction: "The committee decided to put off."
The phrasal verb "put off" is transitive, and the object "the meeting" is correctly placed; Correction: "The committee decided to put off until next week the meeting."
The phrasal verb "put off" is transitive, and the object "the meeting" is correctly placed; Correction: "The committee decided to put it off until next week."
