Question

Find the correct preposition:
He is fond -------- his mother.

• A. in
• B. for
• C. with
• D. of

Hint:

Certain adjectives are always followed by specific prepositions. ``Fond'' is always followed by ``of'' when expressing affection or liking.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Let's understand the correct preposition:
Step 1: The phrase "fond of" is a fixed expression in English used to show liking or affection for someone or something.
Step 2: None of the other prepositions (in, for, with) are used in this context. Therefore, the correct preposition is of.
