Select the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.
Religion is ___________ matter of indifference to many of today's youth.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. a.
The word "a" is used because "matter" is a singular, countable noun in this context, and we need an indefinite article before it.
"A matter" refers to something that can be described as a topic or subject, and the sentence is stating that religion is one such topic of indifference to many of today's youth.
Using "a" is grammatically correct because it introduces a singular, non-specific subject.
