Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The correct option is A: A.
Detailed Explanation
Phonetic Sound: The choice between the articles "a" and "an" is determined by the phonetic sound of the following word, not its spelling. Although "one-eyed" begins with the vowel "o," it is pronounced with a consonant /w/ sound (like "wun-eyed").
Rule Application: Since the word begins with a consonant sound, the indefinite article "a" is used.
