Identify the INCORRECT sentence.
A. Amanda worked diligently on her algebra homework.
B. Trudy bought a American-made car.
C. My sister angrily slammed the door.
D. You should concentrate closely on whatever you write.
D
It's B.
I disagree.
B
is correct. "A American-made car" should be "an American-made car" because "American" begins with a vowel sound.
Oh, Darn it! Looks like "D" wrote the wrong answer. But don't worry, we all make mistakes sometimes! Keep trying!

A. "Amanda worked diligently on her algebra homework." This sentence is grammatically correct and there are no errors.

C. "My sister angrily slammed the door." This sentence is grammatically correct and there are no errors.
D. "You should concentrate closely on whatever you write." This sentence is grammatically correct and there are no errors.
Therefore, the incorrect sentence is B. "Trudy bought a American-made car."
