Question

Replace the underlined article in the given sentence, wherever required, by choosing from the options given:
This table is made of the wood.

• A. a
• B. an
• C. no change
• D. no article required

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

no article required

Option A - 'A' can't be used for uncountable and definite proper nouns. Thus option A is incorrect.

Option B - 'An' can't be used for nouns that have consonant sound. Thus option B is incorrect.

Option C - 'The' is used for definite nouns. As we do not know which wood is the table made of, we can't use 'the' here. Thus option C is incorrect.

Option D - We use no articles when we talk about uncountable or general nouns. 'Wood' is uncountable and thus, option D is the correct answer.

'This table is made of wood.'
