• A. no article / a / no article
• B. The / a / no article
• C. no article / a / the
• D. The / a / the

Answer 1

The correct option is A no article / a / no article

An indefinite article is used when we are talking generally about something whereas a definite article is used when we are talking about something specific.

The indefinite articles are 'a' and 'an'. An is used before a word starting with a vowel or vowel sound. A is used before a word starting with a consonant or consonant sound.

A definite article is an article that tells the uniqueness of something.

'The' is the only definite article.

The first and third blank won't take any article as 'Macy' is a proper noun and '34th Street' is a location. The second blank shall take 'a' as 'department store' is a singular countable noun and starts with the consonant 'd'.

The correct answer is A) no article/a/ no article.

Macy is a department store on 34th Street in New York.
