Demonstrate the correct use of articles and prepositions:_ man is mortal.
Correct answer: D. No article is required
- A. A
- B. An
- C. The
- D. No article is required
Explanation
In the statement "Man is mortal," the absence of an article ("a" or "the") before "man" is due to the fact that "man" is used in a general or universal sense. When we talk about general truths, principles, or characteristics that apply universally, we often omit articles. This usage emphasizes the universality of the statement rather than a specific instance.
