Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
"A" is used before words that begin with a consonant sound.
"An" is used before words that begin with a vowel sound.
The word "university" starts with a consonant sound (/juːnɪˈvɜːrsɪti/), so we use "a" before it.
The word "hour" starts with a vowel sound (/aʊər/), so we use "an" before it.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Option B: A, An
