SSC Selection Post 2024 PYQ — Question 12

SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level - 25 June 2024 - Shift 4 • English • Q12

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.
