Choose the option that correctly fills both blanks:
Mr Kapoor bought ______ SUV last month, and it is now ______ biggest car in our lane.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → an ... the
“An” before a short form read letter by letter, “the” before the highest form of a describing word:
First blank: “SUV” is read letter by letter: S-U-V. The letter S is said “es”, so the word begins with a vowel sound. That is why it takes “an”.
Second blank: “Biggest” is the highest form of “big”. It picks out one car above all the others in the lane, so it takes “the”.
Complete sentence: Mr Kapoor bought an SUV last month, and it is now the biggest car in our lane.
