Solution

The correct option is B The
The sentence already mentions 'previous evening' which means 'yesterday evening' and so option D) is incorrect. The sentence clearly specifies the date and time when the subject fell down and so we need to use the definite article 'the'. The correct answer is, therefore, option C) The. 'A' and 'An' cannot be used here as they are indefinite articles.
