A Correct answer
Explanation

The error is in part (A). In conditional sentences (Type 1), the if-clause should use simple present tense, not 'will'. The correct structure is 'If he works hard, he will get promotion'. Using 'will' in both the if-clause and main clause is redundant and grammatically incorrect. The simple present 'works' is required in the if-clause.
