General EnglishGrammar and usage
- A(a)
- B(b)
- C(c)
- D(d)
Explanation
The word “year” begins with the consonant sound /j/ (pronounced “yeer”), so it takes the article “a”, not “an” — the correct phrase is “in a year”. The error is therefore in part (b). Parts (a) and (c) are grammatical, so the answer is (B).
