Explanation:

“An” is used when the following word begins with a vowel, “a” is used when the following word begins with a consonant. The second sentence would use “a” instead of “the”. I don’t know how to explain how I know, but my answer is correct.

After reading the text, we can correct the three grammatical mistakes concerning the use of articles in the following manner:

... goes on an expedition...
... set up a community garden...
... students can save a lot of money...

When to use "a"?

We use "a" to refer to something that is not specific. It should precede noun that starts with a consonant sound.

In number 2 above, we should use "a" because we are not talking about one specific community garden. There is not just one community garden in South America, but many. "A" is more appropriate since it refers to any of them.

In number 3, we should use "a" because "lot" begins with a consonant sound.

When to use "an"?

We also use "an" refer to something that is not specific. The difference now is that it should precede a noun that starts with a vowel sound.

In number 1 above, we should use "an" because "expedition" begins with a vowel sound. Notice that an expedition happens every year, and the sentence is talking about that fact in general.

When to use "the"?

"The" is used to refer to something specific. The speaker is talking about a certain person, object, feeling, etc. Let's compare the sentences below:

Give me a pen.
Give me the pen.

In number 1, the speaker is asking for any pen. He does not want a specific one. On the other hand, in number 2, the speaker wants a certain pen, and he is sure that the person he is talking to knows what pen it is.
