Question

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
There are many large shops in ______________.

A.

Oxford Street

B.

the Oxford Street

C.

an Oxford Street

D.

a Oxford Street

Correct option is A

The correct option to fill in the blank is (A) Oxford Street.

Explanation: Street names don’t require an article. “Oxford Street” is a proper noun and doesn’t take “a”, “an” or “the” before it.

Example: I love shopping on Oxford Street whenever I visit London.

Why others are incorrect:

  • B. the Oxford Street – Incorrect usage of "the" before street names.
  • C. an Oxford Street – Not appropriate for proper nouns.
  • D. a Oxford Street – Grammatically wrong; article "a" is not used with proper names.

Grammar Tip: Use no article before names of roads, streets, or parks unless a descriptive noun follows (e.g., the street called Oxford).
