Correct Answer: At


Solution : The correct word to fill in the blank is the first option.

At the door means the danger is right at the door, which effectively conveys the intended meaning.

The other prepositions (in, of, and near) do not make sense, and they do not convey the intended meaning of the sentence.

So, the sentence should be: "With danger at the door, you cannot sit idle."
