A.6 I do not want (these/this) water.
I do not want
this water.
Why :
Because water is a noncount noun and is a singular form, therefor it uses "this" instead of
"these". "These" are used for plural, countable nouns.
B.2 Rita is studying English and Math this semester.
Why :
"a/an" is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns while "the" is used for specific or
particular noun. In this sentence however, English and Math is an uncount noun and it means the
whole subject of English and Math therefore it doesn't need any article.

"another" means one more, additional or extra.
