Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. _______ university should always be able to carry out more research projects.

  • A.An
  • B.A
  • C.Many
  • D.All

Answer: B

The correct word is A.

The article before 'university' is 'a', because the word starts with a consonant sound (a 'yoo' sound). The article 'an' goes before vowel sounds.

'Many' and 'all' would need a plural noun, which 'university' is not.

The rule depends on sound, not spelling. The word 'university' starts with the sound 'yoo', which is a consonant sound, so it takes 'a'. In the same way 'a European' and 'a unit' are correct, while 'an hour' takes 'an' because the 'h' is silent.
