Tricky articles v/s singular-plural

While converting singular sentences into plural, make sure that all the articles are removed.Similarly while converting plural sentences into singular,insert the proper article (a,an) before the noun(if necessary).

For example-

Case one(singular to plural)

a)     A chair is made of wood.
Ans) Chairs are made of wood.

b)     An airport is a busy place.
Ans) Airports are busy places.

Case two(plural to singular)

a)    Horses are animals.
Ans)A horse is an animal.

b)     Cows give milk.
Ans) A cow gives milk.

Note-No article is added before the word "milk" because it is an uncountable noun .
