Explanation

Option A is the correct answer because Berlin is located on the banks of the River Spree and the River Havel, not the Rhine. The Rhine is a major river in western Germany, flowing through cities like Cologne and Bonn. The other pairs are correctly matched as London is on the Thames, New York is on the Hudson, and Vienna is on the Danube.
