Question

Complete the sentence with the most appropriate option from those given below.

Maya is ___ analyst. [Basic]

• A. A
• B. An
• C. The
• D. One

Answer 1

The correct option is B An

Option B is the correct answer because 'an' is an indefinite article that is used before a non-specific singular noun starting with a vowel sound. Since 'analyst' starts with a vowel and we don't have enough information to know if Maya is a specific analyst, this is the aptest answer to this question.

Option A is incorrect because 'a' can only be used before non-specific nouns that start with a consonant.

Option C is incorrect because this sentence requires an indefinite article as we do not know if Maya is a specific analyst and 'the' is a definite article.

Option D is incorrect because it would be grammatically incorrect if used in the sentence.
