    Question

    The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that
    contains a grammatical error and select the option which rectifies that error.
    The SNAP-10 A / was launched on 3 April 1965 / on a Atlas-Agena D rocket / from
    Vandenberg Air Force Base.

    A.

    at Vandenberg Air Force Base.

    B.

    A SNAP-10 A

    C.

    was launch on 3 April 1965

    D.

    on an Atlas-Agena D rocket

    Correct option is D

    The error lies in the segment "on a Atlas-Agena D rocket." The article "a" should be "an" because it precedes a word that begins with a vowel sound. Therefore, the correct option is: (d) on an Atlas-Agena D rocket.
    · The corrected sentence is: "The SNAP-10 A was launched on 3 April 1965 on an Atlas-Agena D rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base."
