Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
Right from the beginning ______ government’s focus has been on ______ development of the country.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e. the, the.
- The given sentence mentions two specific things, one subject and object. We usually use 'the' to denote something that is specific, in this case the government and the development. Other articles would become inaccurate because it cannot emphasize on the specific nature of this subject and object. Which is why 'the' is the appropriate fill for both of the blanks.
