Answer: E) No (error)
Explanation
No error. "Without hard work" is a correct prepositional phrase, "there is" agrees with the singular "chance", and "hardly any" is the right way to say almost none. Since "hardly" already carries the negative, nothing else in the sentence should be negative, and nothing is.
