This is __________ best book of elementary English.

  • A.a
  • B.an
  • C.the
  • D.no article

Answer: C

The answer is the: This is the best book of elementary English.

A superlative adjective (best, tallest, most useful) picks out one thing as unique within its group, so it takes the definite article.

'A best book' and 'an best book' treat it as one of several, which contradicts the meaning of 'best', and 'an' would in any case be wrong before a consonant sound. Omitting the article is not standard before a superlative used before a noun.
