Q763

When Thomas heard his alarm clock go off, he got up and opened . . . . . . . . Window.

A.
a
B.
an
C.
the
Answer
D.
no article

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
We use the definite article when the reader/hearer knows what exactly he/she is talking about. Since in the sentence we are talking about a specific window and not just any window that Thomas could open, the use of 'the' before the noun 'window' is appropriate.
