Solution
The correct option is B No article
An/A' is used as an indefinite article for a thing or person when the reader doesn't know which one we are referring to out of many nouns. It states the random nature of the subject.
'The' is used as a definite article for a thing or person when the reader knows which one we are exactly referring to. It states the specific nature of the subject.
Option B is correct as the blank requires no article to carry out the meaning of the sentence. Option C is incorrect because 'An' is used with a word having a vowel sound. Option A is incorrect as 'The home' is illogical here as the readers are unaware of it. Option D is incorrect as 'A home' implies any random single house.
