All questions of Articles for Class 9 Exam

No article needed

Explanation:
When we talk about fruit in general, we do not need to use an article before it. In this case, since the question is asking for the type of fruit someone had for lunch, we can assume that any fruit can be the answer. Therefore, we can use the option 'A', which states that no article is needed. Let's break down the options and why they are incorrect:

a) No article needed: This option is correct because when we talk about fruit in general, we do not need to use an article before it.

b) The: We use the definite article 'the' when we are referring to a specific or particular fruit. However, since the question does not provide any specific information about the fruit, we cannot use 'the' in this case.

c) A: We use the indefinite article 'a' when we are referring to a single, non-specific fruit. However, since the question does not provide any specific information about the fruit, we cannot use 'a' in this case.

d) An: We use the indefinite article 'an' before words that begin with a vowel sound. Since the word "fruit" does not begin with a vowel sound, we cannot use 'an' in this case.

In conclusion, the correct answer is option 'A' - no article needed.
