Question:
I have ___car,_____ car is black. use articles
Athe,the
Bthe,a
Ca,a
Da,the
Answer:
D. a,the
Explanation:
- English has two articles: the and a/an.
- The is used to refer to specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns.
- the = definite article
- a/an = indefinite article
- a + singular noun beginning with a consonant: a boy; a car; a bike; a zoo; a dog
-
The definite article is used before singular and plural nouns when the noun is specific or particular. The signals that the noun is definite, that it refers to a particular member of a group. For example:
“The dog that bit me ran away.” Here, we’re talking about a specific dog, the dog that bit me.
