Select the most appropriate article to fill in the blank.
Your shirt is _____ same colour as mine.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. the.
Context: The sentence refers to a specific colour — “the same colour as mine.” The word "same" always takes the definite article "the" before it.
Meaning of the other options:
-
a and an are used for non-specific or singular countable nouns, which doesn't apply here.
-
No article is incorrect because "same" always requires "the".
Final Sentence: Your shirt is the same colour as mine.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
