It is too long (A) a jouney (B) to make in one day. (C) No error (D)
Answer: D
The keyed answer is No error. The intended sentence is It is too long a journey to make in one day.
The pattern too + adjective + a + noun is correct English: the adjective moves in front of the article after too, so, as and how (too long a journey, so good a man, as fine a day). It is followed by a to-infinitive showing the result, to make in one day.
The paper prints jouney, a printing slip for journey; the item tests grammar, and the grammar of all three parts is sound. Writing a too long journey would be the error the item is checking for.
