Question

think about
(article + noun)
and how it
(verb phrase)

Explanation:

For the "article + noun" blank after "Think about", a common phrase could be "Think about the problem" (here "the problem" is article + noun). For the "verb phrase" blank after "And how it", a common verb phrase could be "And how it affects us" (here "affects us" is a verb phrase, with "affects" as the verb and "us" as the object).

Answer:

• For "article + noun": the problem (example, other options like "the idea", "the plan" are also valid)
• For "verb phrase": affects us (example, other options like "helps you", "changes things" are also valid)
