Question

Fill the blanks with suitable articles:

Jim goes everywhere by _____ bike. He hasn't got _____ car.

• A. a ; a
• B. the ; the
• C. no article ; a
• D. a ; no article

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

We use an indefinite article in front of a singular countable noun. Besides, 'The' is used for a particular subjects or for subjects previously mentioned. So 'The' doesn't fit into neither of the blanks. For regular work we use by bike instead of by a bike. Hence by eliminating other options we find Option C as the correct answer.
