Back to paper

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.

You can go to ______ National Art Gallery but I want to visit ______ zoo first.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. the; the​​​​​​.

  • Indefinite articles (A and An) are used when we don’t talk about any specific person or
  • thing. We use these articles before singular countable nouns.
  • The definite article (The) is used when we talk about someone specific.
  • In the given sentence, both the blanks talk about specific things, i.e. "National Art Gallery", and "Zoo".
  • So, the definite article ‘the’ will be used in both the blanks.
  • The correct sentence would be: You can go to the National Art Gallery but I want to visit the zoo first.
