Correct Answer: an hurry


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation : The correct article to be used should be "a" instead of "an" before "hurry". An is used before words that start with a vowel sound, while a is used before words that start with a consonant sound. In this case, "hurry" starts with a consonant sound, so it should be a hurry .

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "She is in a hurry to meet her brother."
