    A have no umbrella Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B don't have an umbrella Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C don't have the umbrella Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D No improvement Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    “Have” is a static verb, therefore we don’t write “have” in continuous form if we need to show possession, thus “don’t have an umbrella” should be used.
