Again, why "sebuah" and what does that mean? It's in the mutiple choice though not above here.

'sebuah' is a classifier/counter used for objects.
It's translated as the indefinite article 'a' or 'an'.
You can leave it out in this sentence.
The three most frequently used classifiers are :
seorang ==> for humans
seekor ==> for animals
sebuah ==> for objects
