Correct Answer: B
Solution : The error lies in the third option.
The use of the article the before small apartment is unnecessary in this context. The correct construction is to use a before small apartment to indicate that Aniket lives in one of the small apartments in the suburbs, not a specific one. The article a is used before singular, countable nouns that begin with a consonant sound.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Aniket lives in a small apartment in the suburbs."
