Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
I don't have ________ petrol in my car.

• A. some
• B. no
• C. lot of
• D. any

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

The given sentence is a negative sentence because of the presence of "don't". If we look into each and every option carefully:

'Some' is commonly used in positive sentences (this sentence is negative. So Option A is out.

'No' can be used before a noun that is preceded by an adjective, but it is not used before any, much, many, or enough. In this case there are no adjectives before the noun. Option B is out.

'Any' is used in negative sentences. Option C is the correct option

'lot of' is wrong English, it is either 'a lot of' or 'lots of'. Option D is incorrect.

So, Option C is the correct answer.
