Question

Fill in the blank with the correct or no article:
Shelly has a green and ____ black trousers.
(One pair of trousers)

• A. a
• B. an
• C. No Article
• D. the

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Since there is only one pair trousers which has both green and black color in it and the indefinite article 'a' has already been used before green no article should be put before black. If we put an article before black, then it would change the meaning of the sentence and it will indicate that Shelly has two trousers one is green and one is black. therefore, Option A, B, and C are incorrect and Option D is the correct answer.
