The correct answer is: A. the, the
The word “the” is used to refer to a specific person or thing that has already been mentioned. In this case, the speaker has already mentioned the man they were talking to, so they use the word “the” to refer to him again. The word “the” is also used to refer to a unique or specific thing. In this case, the speaker is referring to a specific type of candy, orange candies, so they use the word “the” to refer to them.
The word “a” is used to refer to an indefinite or general person or thing. In this case, the speaker is not referring to a specific man, but rather to any man. The word “a” is also used to refer to a non-specific or general thing. In this case, the speaker is not referring to a specific type of candy, but rather to any type of candy.
The answer “A and B” is incorrect because the word “the” cannot be used with the word “a”. The word “the” is used to refer to a specific person or thing, while the word “a” is used to refer to an indefinite or general person or thing.
The answer “none of these” is incorrect because the word “the” is used in the sentence.
