What's so funny is, it didn't just appear in the older version of the book. So did the newer version!! That's why I am curious.
Thanks!

Hi,
How soon can you finish this report?
(A) I can have it for you by tomorrow morning.
(B) I'm expecting an important call soon.
(C) This is very big room.

The answer for this Question-Response item is A, no doubt about it.
But, Why isn't there an article "a" before "very big room" in answer C? Is that just missing or intentional? Please advise. Without the article, C is not correct grammar. I don't know why it was omitted.

Best wishes, Clive
