Correct Answer:

(B), (C) and (E) Only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - (B), (C) and (E) Only

 

  • (A) Mrs. Rawat's daughter is an university student. – Incorrect. It should be "a university student" because "university" starts with a consonant sound.
  • (B) Shyam has a one-year-old daughter. – Correct. The article "a" is used correctly before "one-year-old."
  • (C) She will soon be married to an heir to the throne. – Correct. The article "an" is correctly used before "heir" because it starts with a vowel sound.
  • (D) I want to travel to an European city. – Incorrect. It should be "a European city" because "European" starts with a consonant sound.
  • (E) They have an MP residing in their neighbourhood. – Correct. The article "an" is used correctly before "MP" since "MP" is pronounced starting with a vowel sound.
