The word "a" can be pronounced in a schwa sound, such as "uh" or it can be pronounced with the long "A" sound, as in "A"... Similarly, the word "the" can be pronounced with a schwa ending, as in "thuh" or it can have a long "E" sound in the end, as in "th E" is there some sort of rule as when you use which pronounciation?

I did a math puzzle in algebra and it was this grid and it gives you a paragraph and you have to shade in the boxes? I don't know how to explain it but it will say something like. "The boy who wore red did not have a black cat. The owner of the black cat wore yellow." And you have to go on and figure out who belongs with which animal and what color shirt. If you know what I'm talking about do you know a website where i could print some out?

If you expect the unexpected, doesn't that make the unexpected expected, thus making "unexpected" nonexisting? Longest and most confusing answer wins. =]
