I have a few problems about "acticle"

The article I want to ask is "the"

I am frustrated.

I can hardly determine when should I use "the"

If a noun is countable, if there is a "a/an" , no "the" ,simply.

however, if the noun is "apples", whether I put "the" before "apples",

the sentence will still be grammartically correct....

so, should i put "the" before "apples"?

In other words, is there any cases that i have to put "the" after a plural noun?

When the noun is uncoutable,

It is more complicated, should i just put "the" before "every" uncountable noun?

Is there any exclusions ?

(Today, my English teacher just told me that the noun "nature" cannot be put after "the".

As a result, I have become more frustrated.)

In my opinion the use of articles is one of the most difficult aspects of English grammar. It is plain impossible to give you comprehensive rules about the use of articles here. It would take too much time, and you can read the same rules in most good grammar books.
