Question

I have \(\underline{\hspace{1cm}}\) umbrella. I bought it \(\underline{\hspace{1cm}}\) year ago.

• A. A, An
• B. An, A
• C. An, The
• D. Then, An

Hint:

Use "An" before words that start with vowel sounds and "A" before words that start with consonant sounds.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: The indefinite article "An" is used before words starting with a vowel sound, and "A" is used before words starting with a consonant sound.
Step 2: "Umbrella" starts with a vowel sound, so the article "An" is used: "I have an umbrella."
Step 3: "Year" starts with a consonant sound (y), so the article "A" is used: "I bought it a year ago."
Thus, the correct answer is (b) An, A.
