Would you recognize . . . . . . . . Pope or . . . . . . . . Queen of England? A. a, an B. the, an C. the, the D. no article

a, an
the, an
the, the
no article

The correct answer is D. no article.

The Pope and the Queen of England are both unique individuals who hold specific positions. There is only one Pope at a time, and there is only one Queen of England at a time. Therefore, we do not use articles before their names.

If we were talking about a generic pope or queen, we would use an article. For example, we might say “I would recognize a pope if I saw him.” Or, we might say “I would recognize a queen if I saw her.”

However, in the context of the question, we are not talking about a generic pope or queen. We are talking about the specific Pope and the specific Queen of England. Therefore, we do not use articles.
