Grammar questions about article usage
1.He should be home; I saw ____ in his house
2.He should be home; I saw ____ in his room.
A.. a light B. the light C. lights D. the lights
I'm confused about choosing which will be correct in these two sentences. For the first sentence, I suppose both A and C are correct, because the speaker didn't refer to any specific light in the house. For the second sentence, B and D are correct, because the speaker referred to the specific light in the house.
Hope I've made myself clear enough. Please correct me if I'm wrong. And I want to know why. Thank you! :)

I wrote a few sentences , I don't know whether I made any grammar mistakes or used wrong expression. I hope somebody can help me check it.
Here was what i wrote:
The fact that more and more people owning cars don't have good driving habits cause a lot of traffic accidents. There is an ongoing discussion about which will be the best ways to make our roads safer. In my opinion, I think not only strict punishments but also other measures should be used to promote safe driving.

A description of a line chart
This graph shows how fish and meat's consumption changed from 1979 to 2004 in a European country.
The consumption of chicken grew markedly and was the highest throughout the period, rising from around 150 grams to 220 grams per person per week in 2004.By contrast, the figure for the consumption of beef was lowest, which dramatically decrease since the year 1984.
The figure of the consumption of lambs saw a mighty down to 60 grams in 2004. In addition, the figure for fish's consumption was the lowest, although it didn't increase a lot between 1979 and 2004.
In the year 1989, two figures were almost in the same. These two were the consumption of chicken and beef, whose figure were both 200 grams per person per week.
Overall, only the consumption of chicken saw an upward trend in the charts, while other three kinds of food's consumption was in an downward trend.

Functions of advertising
Hope someone have a look and modify my composition.
Topic: Advertising encourages consumers to buy in quantity rather than promoting quality. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
---------------------------------------------------------------
There is a heated debate on the functions of advertising. I agree that the advertisers should persuade consumers to buy things with high quality instead of quantity.
Advertisers usually recruit high-profiled people to promote their products in order to make people purchase their products as many as possible. People who like these idols tend to buy things they don't need. For example, many Chinese are crazy about Korean idols and these crazy fans may purchase everything that has their printed idols photos. As a result, they buy a lot of useless products because of those advertising.
Advertisements often overstate the function of their product, which promote people to purchase these kinds of products. It is not uncommon that most people are likely to believe the effectiveness of their products in advertisements. This particularly happens to elderly people, who are easily convinced to buy some expensive health products. Thus, people fall in the trap set by advertisers again.
On the other hand, some advertisements will provide people with a large amounts of information and enable consumers make a rational decision in purchasing. People is able to compare various information about different products and choose what they need the most. Take online shopping for example, people who do shopping online are willing to believe the stores with adequate information. It is good for people that they will not buy unnecessary items because of those exaggerated advertisement and product manufactories will just try their best to improve the product qualities.
In conclusion, advertising have two methods to persuade people to buy their products. Stay rational when purchasing a product is very important.
