Правило: слово выбирается по смыслу и грамматической форме предложения.

Tim was tapping his foot nervously while he was waiting for his test results. (Тим нервно постукивал ногой, ожидая результатов теста.)
Jane is a pretty girl with blue eyes and a(n) slim build. (Джейн — хорошенькая девушка с голубыми глазами и стройным телосложением.)
Don’t worry, Greg will be here on time; he’s very reliable. (Не волнуйся, Грег будет здесь вовремя; на него можно положиться.)
When Mel told his colleagues that he was leaving the company, they decided to buy him a going-away present. (Когда Мел сказал коллегам, что уходит из компании, они решили купить ему подарок на прощание.)
I don’t think Claire is going camping this weekend; she still hasn’t got over her cold. (Я не думаю, что Клэр поедет в поход в эти выходные: она ещё не оправилась от простуды.)
When we complained to the waiter about the noisy people at the next table, he just shrugged his shoulders and said he couldn’t do anything about them. (Когда мы пожаловались официанту на шумных людей за соседним столиком, он лишь пожал плечами и сказал, что ничего не может с ними сделать.)
Nadia is so stubborn! She never listens to anyone and does whatever she wants. (Надя такая упрямая! Она никогда никого не слушает и делает что хочет.)
I only met Mike two weeks ago at a party. We’re not really friends, we’re just acquaintances. (Я познакомился с Майком всего две недели назад на вечеринке. Мы не настоящие друзья, а просто знакомые.)
