Test: Prepositions- 2 - Class 8 MCQ

The correct answer is Option C.
We are to identify the preposition in the given sentence.
A preposition is a word that indicates position.
IN is the preposition in the given sentence because in indicates the position of the horse.
Thus Option C is the correct answer.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
THERE is an adverb of place.
IS is a verb.
THE is an article.

Prepositions along with indicating position also express relation between 2 things or persons.
Option A - 'Which' is an interrogatory word, and is a pronoun. Thus option A is incorrect.
Option C - 'You' is a pronoun. Thus option C is incorrect.
Option D - 'These' is a determiner/pronoun. Thus option D is incorrect.
Option B - 'Of' is a preposition, which indicates possession, and 'at' is a preposition, which indicates location/condition. Thus option B is the correct answer.

The correct answer is  option A.
Prepositions connect or describe the relation of one noun to another in a sentence. For is a preposition which is used to denote usage of something, time or duration or cause of something.

A preposition is a word that connects a noun/pronoun to a verb/adjective.
A phrasal verb is a verb that forms a phrase with a preposition or an adverb. The meaning of this phrase is different from the literal meanings of the words.
Option A: 'After' is a preposition that means 'about somebody or something'.
Also, it forms a phrasal verb with 'look after', which means: 'to look for, to take care of someone or something'. It relates to the given sentence, 'Please take care of your interests' or 'keep your interests in mind'.
Hence A is correct.
Options B and C: 'Of' refers to belonging and 'under' refers to a 'lower level or rank'. These words are not relevant here.
Option D: 'Out' forms a phrasal verb 'look out' that means 'to keep an eye on something and be careful'. This, too, isn't relevant here.
Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.

The sentence talks about the likelihood of Soomro becoming the head of his department. 'About to become' indicates that it has already been decided that he should become the head of department. So, it is a probable answer. 'Off to become' also indicates that he is set to become the head of department. Hence, option C is another possible answer. The phrases 'for to become' and 'in to become' are grammatically incorrect in the context of the sentence.

A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words. Option A) by is correct as it is used to explain how something is done. The other options are wrong as on is used to indicate a surface, to is used to give a direction, and with is used to express inclusion of something. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is A) by.

Here, 'in' is correct because it is used to show somebody’s job or profession. Here, it is his job to deal 'in' cosmetics.
'With' is incorrect because it implies in the company or presence of somebody/something.
'At' is incorrect because it is used to say where something/somebody is or where something happens.
'For' is incorrect because it is used to show who is intended to have or use something or where something is intended to be put.

Options B and D are correct because both are prepositions. 'For' means considering what can be expected from somebody/something or it is used to show who can or should do something. 'To' is used to indicate the place, person, or thing that someone or something moves toward, or the direction of something. 
Option A is incorrect because the question requires us to find the preposition and 'your' is not a preposition rather it is a possessive pronoun.
Option C is incorrect because 'is' is a verb that is the third person singular present form of 'be'.

A preposition is a word that links a noun, pronoun and a noun phrase. After is the word that links nouns i.e. storm and calm. Hence it is a preposition.

'Of' is incorrect because it implies belonging to somebody; relating to somebody.
'By' is incorrect because it is used, usually after a passive verb, to show who or what does, creates or causes something.
'On' is incorrect because it implies in or into a position covering, touching or forming part of a surface.
