Question

Admission was ________ ladies.

• A. limited of
• B. restricted by
• C. restricted to
• D. limited by

Hint:

Collocation: "restricted to" = allowed only for; "restricted by" = constrained by something.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The correct preposition with "restricted" is "to." The phrase "restricted to ladies" means admission was only allowed for ladies. 
Other options are grammatically incorrect: 
- "limited of" → wrong usage. 
- "restricted by" → changes the meaning. 
- “limited by” → incorrect in this context. \[ \boxed{\text{restricted to}} \]
