Our neighbors have _ cat and _ dog.
Correct answer: B. A, a
- A. A, an
- B. A, a
- C. A, the
- D. An, an
Explanation
Our neighbors have a cat and a dog.The indefinite article "a" is used before both "cat" and "dog" because the sentence refers to any one cat and any one dog that belong to the neighbors. Each noun is singular and countable, and we are not specifying any particular cat or dog, hence "a" is appropriate.
