(ESPCEX) - QUESTÃO

Choose the alternative that best completes the sentence below.

Lucy rented _______ yellow car about ________ hour ago and lent it to_________ students.

Ⓐ a – a – a

Ⓑ the – the – the

Ⓒ an – an – an

Ⓓ a – a – the

Ⓔ a – an – the

Let’s carefully analyze the sentence:

Sentence:
"Lucy rented _______ yellow car about ________ hour ago and lent it to _________ students."

We need to choose the correct articles (“a,” “an,” “the”) for each blank.

1. First blank: “_______ yellow car”

   • “Yellow” begins with a consonant sound /y/, so we use “a”. ✅

2. Second blank: “about ________ hour ago”

   • “Hour” begins with a vowel sound /aʊər/, so we use “an”. ✅

3. Third blank: “lent it to _________ students”

   • The sentence seems to refer to specific students (those known from context), so we use “the”. ✅

So the correct sequence is: a – an – the

Answer: a – an – the
