Question

Select whichever preposition or determiner you consider the most appropriate for the blank space.
I had ____________________ trouble finding the house.

A.

any

B.

some

C.

few

D.

all

Correct option is B

The word that can be filled in the blank is ‘some’ to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
· ‘Some’ is used to indicate an unspecified amount in affirmative sentences. Grammatical rule involved: ‘Some’ is commonly used to express an unspecified quantity in positive statements.
· As per the context, the phrase ‘some trouble’ indicates that the speaker faced an unspecified but recognizable amount of difficulty, hence it is the correct option.
Meanings of other given words:
· Any: This term is typically used in negative sentences or questions and does not fit the affirmative context of the sentence.
· Few: This term is used with countable nouns and suggests a small number, which does not apply to ‘trouble’ in this context.
· All: This term indicates the total amount and does not align with the idea of experiencing a limited amount of difficulty.
· Thus, all the other given words have different meanings and do not fit in the context of the sentence.
