(1) of
(2) from
(3) at
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The correct answer is the first option.
The word "wary" is followed by the preposition "of" when expressing caution or wariness towards something or someone. The other options "wary from strangers" and "wary at strangers" are not the correct expressions to use with wary and hence, incorrect.
Therefore, the correct statement should be: "It is a normal part of growth and development for a young child to be wary of strangers."
