83) ". . . . . . . . x-ray of this foot is needed," said Dr. Kapoor.
Explanation :
Use 'an' before words such as "hour" which sound like they start with a vowel even if the first letter is a consonant. Also use 'an' before letters and numbers which sound like they begin with a vowel, such as "F" or "8". Here X-ray begins with 'ex' and therefore 'an' article will be used.
84) He sent me . . . . . . . . sms.
Explanation :
Use 'an' before words such as "hour" which sound like they start with a vowel even if the first letter is a consonant. Also use 'an' before letters and numbers which sound like they begin with a vowel, such as "F" or "8". 'An' will be used before 'sms'.
88) . . . . . . . . Chief Executive Officer and . . . . . . . . Managing Director of the company are in the meeting room.
Explanation :
The given nouns 'Chief Executive Officer' and 'Managing Director' are specific positions of a company, hence they are definite nouns and we use a definite article for both of them, 'the', which is the only definite article, and it modifies both the nouns because they're specific (what also makes them specific is the phrase 'in the meeting room' as we are referring to the CEO and the MD in the meeting room), hence Option C is correct.
89) . . . . . . . . U. S. A. is larger than . . . . . . . . India in area.
Explanation :
'The' is used before the plural forms of names of the countries/states. For example, 'The Netherlands, The United Arab Emirates.' 'USA' is an abbreviation of United States of America. It is a made up of 50 states and hence we use 'The' before 'U.S.A.'
90) You need . . . . . . . . visa to visit some countries, but not all of them.
Explanation :
The article 'the' is used when the noun is specific and known to the speaker as well as the listener. The noun 'visa' is not specified as to which visa and it's been mentioned for the first time here, so 'the' isn't the correct article. An indefinite article, either 'a' or 'an' is required. 'An' is used for nouns beginning with a vowel, 'visa' begins with a consonant, and hence 'a' is the correct article for 'visa'.
