Ryan is . . . . . . . . excellent boy. A. a B. an C. the D. none of the above

a
an
the
none of the above

The correct answer is: a.

The word “excellent” is an adjective that describes Ryan. Adjectives come before nouns, so the correct article to use is “a”.

The word “an” is used before singular nouns that start with a vowel sound. The word “excellent” starts with a consonant sound, so “an” is not the correct article to use.

The word “the” is used before specific nouns. The word “boy” is a general noun, so “the” is not the correct article to use.

The word “none of the above” is not the correct answer because it is not an article.
