Question : Direction: Fill in the blank with the appropriate preposition:
The students carried bags ____ their shoulders.
Option 1: on
Option 2: by
Option 3: in
Option 4: at
Correct Answer:
on
Solution : The correct answer is option 1.
Explanation:
To indicate direction, time, place, location, spatial relationships, or to introduce an object, a preposition is a word or group of words used before a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase.
Examples include "in," "at," "on," "of," "to," etc.
When an object is physically in contact with and supported by a surface, the preposition "on" is used to indicate this.
Example: The book is on the bed.
- In the preceding sentence, the student's shoulders physically touch and supports the bags.
Therefore, to fill in the blank, we will use "on."
