The correct way to complete the sentence is by using the definite article "the", option C, as in "The person next to me in line is named Stewart."
<h3>What is a definite article?</h3>
In English, we have only one definite article, "the". It is used to refer to specific things or people, that is, to determine an object or a person. Let's compare the sentences below to better understand it:
- A man suddenly called my name. --> A random man; I do not know who it is.
- The man suddenly called my name. --> A specific man; I have probably mentioned him before.
That is why the best option to complete the sentence in the question is "the". The speaker is talking about a specific man in line. Thus, the correct answer is "The person next to me in line is named Stewart."
The complete question with the missing answer choices is the following:
