Explanation:

A noun is a word that names a thing, a person, animal, place, idea, feeling, quality, phenomenon, substance, period of time, etc., in other words, it is a word that names something or someone.

In the sentence, rain and Spain are nouns because the former names the water that falls in drops condensed from vapor in the atmosphere, and Spain names a country.

Both B and D. A noun is a person place or thing. So rain is a thing and Spain is a place.
