Correct Answer: in
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Explanation: When describing someone's place of residence, we use "in" before the country or city. In this context, "in Australia" means that Surti lived within the country of Australia.
The meanings of the other prepositions are as follows:
At: It is typically used with a specific address or place, not a country.
Over in: It is not a common phrase used to describe someone's place of residence.
Over at: It is not commonly used to describe someone's place of residence, especially in the context of a country.
So, the sentence would be: "After retirement, Surti lived in Australia."
