Question

Complete the sentence with the best option from those given below.

Charlie Chaplin was _____ English film actor.

• A. a
• B. an
• C. the
• D. one

Answer 1

The correct option is B an

Option A is incorrect as as 'A 'can't be used with a word beginning with a vowel. Option C is is incorrect as 'The' is used as a definite article for a particular subject but neither English nor actor is unique. Option D is incorrect as 'One' doesn't go with the sense of the sentence. Because it states a number which means there is only one English film actor in the world and that's impractical. Hence Option B is correct as 'An' is used with a word having a vowel sound.
