[amp_mcq option1=”the, the, a, the” option2=”the, a, the, the” option3=”a, a, the, a” option4=”the, the, the, a” correct=”option1″]
The correct answer is: A. the, the, a, the
The sun is a singular noun, so it takes the definite article “the”. The rain is a mass noun, so it does not take an article. The rainbow is a singular noun, so it takes the definite article “the”. The sky is a singular noun, so it takes the definite article “the”.
Here is a brief explanation of each option:
- Option A: The sun came out right after the rain and there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky. This is the correct answer because it uses the correct articles for each noun.
- Option B: The sun came out right after a rain and there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky. This is incorrect because it uses the indefinite article “a” before the noun “rain”. Rain is a mass noun, so it does not take an article.
- Option C: A sun came out right after a rain and there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky. This is incorrect because it uses the indefinite article “a” before the noun “sun”. The sun is a singular noun, so it takes the definite article “the”.
- Option D: The sun came out right after the rain and there was a beautiful rainbow in a sky. This is incorrect because it uses the definite article “the” before the noun “sky”. The sky is a singular noun, but it is not a specific sky. It is any sky. Therefore, it does not take the definite article “the”.
