Question

Select the sentence that requires the article ‘the’.

A.

He lives somewhere in southern Germany.

B.

They share rent of the house equally.

C.

She is ignorant of her social standing.

D.

She has an abundance of cake at home.

Correct option is B


Explanation of the Correct Answer: · "They share rent of the house equally" requires "the" before "house" because it refers to a specific house known to the speaker and listener.
Why Are the Other Options Incorrect? · (a) "He lives somewhere in southern Germany." → No article needed before "southern Germany" as geographical regions don’t take articles.
· (c) "She is ignorant of her social standing." → No article required before "social standing" as it is an abstract noun.
· (d) "She has an abundance of cake at home." → "An" before "abundance" is correct; no additional article needed.
Thus, the correct answer is: (b) "They share rent of the house equally."
