Question

Choose the option that best corrects the sentence:

Children enjoy playing in the rain. [Advanced]

• A. The children enjoy playing in the rain.
• B. A children enjoy playing in the rain.
• C. An children enjoy playing in the rain.
• D. NO CHANGE

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (D)

The correct options are
A The children enjoy playing in the rain.
D NO CHANGE

The given statement can be taken as a general statement and can also be directed towards a particular group of children. Hence Option D is correct (we don't need an article when making general statements). Option A is correct because it refers to a particular group of children which further describes them by mentioning what they enjoy. Options B and C are incorrect because the articles in both of them are used for singular nouns.
