It’s a pity we haven’t got . . . . . . . . camera. I’d like to take . . . . . . . . photograph of that house. A. an, an B. an, the C. a, a D. the, a

[amp_mcq option1=”an, an” option2=”an, the” option3=”a, a” option4=”the, a” correct=”option3″]

The correct answer is: C. a, a

The word “camera” is a countable noun, so it takes a singular article. The word “photograph” is also a countable noun, so it takes a singular article.

In the first sentence, “It’s a pity we haven’t got a camera,” the speaker is expressing regret that they do not have a camera. The speaker is not referring to a specific camera, but rather to any camera. Therefore, the indefinite article “a” is used.

In the second sentence, “I’d like to take a photograph of that house,” the speaker is expressing a desire to take a picture of a specific house. The speaker is not referring to any house, but rather to that house. Therefore, the indefinite article “a” is used.

The other options are incorrect because they use the definite article “the.” The definite article is used to refer to specific people, places, or things. In this case, the speaker is not referring to a specific camera or photograph, so the definite article is not appropriate.
