Prepositions

The correct preposition to use with 'ignorant' when indicating what someone lacks knowledge about is 'of'. The phrase should be 'He is ignorant of what he pretends to know.' However, since 'of' is not provided as an option, none of the given options (to, with, on, from) are correct. The question is flawed because the correct preposition 'of' is missing. The best correction would be to replace option A with 'of' and mark it as the correct answer.

The correct preposition to use with 'called' in this context is 'on', which means to visit someone. The sentence should read: 'I called on him but he was very busy in his work.' The other options do not fit grammatically or idiomatically.

The correct preposition to use with 'covered' in this context is 'with'. We say 'covered with snow' to indicate that snow is spread over the mountain.

The correct preposition to use with illnesses is 'with', so 'He is down with Malaria' is the correct phrase. Other options do not fit standard English usage in this context.

The correct preposition to use with 'adhere' in this context is 'to', as in 'adhere to your promise', meaning to follow or stick to it.

The correct preposition to use with 'bad' when referring to a subject like maths is 'at'. The phrase 'bad at maths' is the standard and idiomatic expression in English.

The correct preposition to complete the phrase 'Creativity allows language ___ accommodate new meanings and messages' is 'to'. This is because 'allow' is followed by the infinitive form of the verb with 'to', making 'to accommodate' the grammatically correct choice.

The correct phrasal verb is 'gives off,' which means to emit or release, especially a smell or fragrance. Therefore, 'The jasmine gives off its fragrance at night' is correct.

The correct preposition to use with months is 'in'. Therefore, the sentence should read: 'Fahad resigned from the job in January?'.

The correct preposition to use with 'exempted' in this context is 'from', as it indicates that she is excused or freed from the obligation of night duty.

The correct phrase is 'Anam is the smartest of all girls,' which correctly uses 'of all' to indicate she is the smartest among the entire group. The other options are either ungrammatical or less appropriate in this context.

The correct prepositional phrase to indicate leaving a car is 'out of the car.' 'Out of' correctly shows movement from inside to outside. The other options are either incomplete or grammatically incorrect.

The adjective 'heated' is commonly followed by the prepositions 'about' or 'over' when referring to a dispute or topic, as in 'heated argument about your father' or 'heated debate over the policy.' The preposition 'about' is idiomatic and correct in this context. Other options like 'down,' 'on,' or 'from' are not used with 'heated' in this sense. Therefore, 'heated about your father' is the correct phrase.

The phrase 'The whole nation was behind the President' correctly uses the preposition 'behind' to indicate support. The other options do not fit the context appropriately.

The correct preposition in the phrase is 'to', as in 'You are blind to your shortcomings.' This is the standard idiomatic expression used to indicate unawareness or ignorance of something. The option 'of' is incorrect in this context.

The correct preposition to use with 'care' in this context is 'for,' as in 'care for someone,' meaning to look after or be concerned about them.

The correct preposition to complete the phrase 'I am glad _________ your success' is 'for.' The idiomatic and grammatically correct expression is 'I am glad for your success,' which means you are happy about someone's success. The option 'to' is incorrect here because 'glad to' is typically followed by a verb (e.g., 'glad to hear'), not directly by a noun phrase like 'your success.'

The correct preposition to use with 'bank' in this context is 'at'. We say 'opened a current account at the bank' to indicate the location where the account was opened.

The correct preposition to describe the river's position relative to the bridge is 'under,' as rivers flow beneath bridges. 'Along' and 'on' do not accurately describe this spatial relationship.

The correct preposition in the phrase 'There is no use ______ going there at this time' is 'of'. The idiomatic expression is 'There is no use of going', meaning it is pointless to go there now.

The correct prepositions are 'of' after 'think' and 'by' to indicate the mode of transport. Thus, 'I can’t even think of travelling by public bus' is grammatically correct.

The correct preposition to indicate the material something is made of is 'of'. Therefore, 'This chair is made of wood.' is correct. Other options like 'with', 'from', and 'by' are incorrect in this context.

The correct preposition to describe planes flying in formation relative to the fields below is 'over'. 'Over' indicates movement or position higher than something else, which fits the context of planes flying above fields.

The correct preposition to use with 'jeer' in this context is 'at', as we 'jeer at' someone or something. Therefore, 'Do not jeer at the poor' is correct.

The correct preposition to use with 'ill' and a cause like 'fever' is 'from'. 'He is ill from fever' is the proper phrase, indicating the cause of illness. 'With' is sometimes used but less correct in this context.
