Roger went / to an United Kingdom / with his wife / to celebrate Christmas.
Option 1: Roger went
Option 2: to an United Kingdom
Option 3: to celebrate Christmas
Option 4: with his wife
Correct Answer: to an United Kingdom
Solution : The error lies in the second option.
The error lies in the use of the article "an" before "United Kingdom." The correct article to use before "United Kingdom" is "the".'The article "the" is used only for countries whose names have a negative connotation.
