Correct Answer: A; the
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .
Articles are used before nouns or noun equivalents and are a type of adjective.
The definite article (the) is used before a noun to indicate that the identity of the noun is known to the reader. The indefinite article (a, an) is used before a noun that is general or when its identity is not known.
Since the word year has the consonant sound, the correct article will be a, and NCC is an organisation; therefore, the will be used.
