Preposition MCQ Questions and Answers | English Aptitude MCQ

'Through' means 'from one end or side of something to the other'. Hence it makes the sentence meaningful.

The most common use for 'among' is when something is in or with a group of a few, several, or many things. The most common use of 'between' is when something is in the middle of two things or two groups of things. It is sometimes used in the phrase in between.

'Burst in' means 'to enter a place suddenly or unexpectedly'. Hence it makes the sentence meaningful.

We use the preposition "to" to show a relationship or connection.
In this sentence, we are talking about someone's attitude in relation to their work.

Think of it this way: "attitude to something" is a common and correct phrase.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B: in - "His attitude in his work" doesn't quite make sense. We are not talking about the attitude *inside* the work.
C: about - "His attitude about his work" is closer, but "attitude to" is more precise and commonly used in this context. "About" usually refers to the subject of conversation or thought.
D: of - "His attitude of his work" is grammatically incorrect and doesn't convey the intended meaning.

Therefore, "His attitude to his work is very negative" is the most accurate and grammatically correct choice.

The correct preposition after "congratulate" when referring to an achievement or success is "on".

The standard expression is "congratulate someone on [noun/gerund]".

"Winning the match" functions as a gerund phrase (acting like a noun), so "on" is the grammatically correct choice.

Examples: "She congratulated him on his promotion." / "They congratulated us on passing the exam."

"For" is sometimes used in casual or informal settings, but it is not the correct preposition in standard formal English usage with "congratulate".

"From" and "of" are completely incorrect in this grammatical structure.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "We congratulated the team on winning the match."

Hence, Option D is correct.

'Concerned about' means 'being worried and disturbed'. Hence it makes the sentence meaningful.

Here 'in' preposition is used to indicate the 'form of'. The sentence suggests that bill was paid in the form of cash.

'Absconded with' means 'to escape from a place that you are not allowed to leave without permission'. Hence it makes the sentence meaningful.

* The sentence structure indicates that Maggie is giving or lending something to someone.
* "To" is the preposition used to show the recipient of something.
* Therefore, Maggie lent her record book to Shirley.

Now, let's see why the other options are incorrect:

* "In" implies being inside something, which doesn't fit the context.
* "On" usually indicates something being supported by or touching a surface, which isn't relevant here.
* "At" typically indicates a location or time, which also doesn't fit the sentence's meaning.

So, the best word to complete the sentence logically and grammatically is "to".
