Correct Answer: Out of


Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

''Out of'' fits perfectly in the sentence, which means "from". It means that Sally parked the car and quickly exited it.

The prepositions in the other options, ''in'', ''over'' and ''on'' are incorrect and should not be used in the sentence.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Got in: succeeded in entering a place, especially by using force or a trick.
  • Got over: crossed or surmounted something.
  • Got on: had a friendly relationship with somebody.

Therefore, the complete sentence is "Sally parked and got out of the car quickly".
