4) The curtains do not match with the furniture.

• A. 1 & 2

• D. All

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To choose the correct sentences, we need to understand the grammar and usage of the phrase "with" in each context. The correct use of "with" should signify accompaniment or association. Let's evaluate the sentences:

1. I will go with you. This sentence correctly uses "with" to indicate accompaniment; it is a valid expression.

2. There was nobody I could go with. Here, "with" is correctly indicating the lack of a person to accompany; this is correct usage.

3. I have a glass with painting on it. Although grammatically acceptable in some contexts, it doesn’t convey the clearest meaning. Usually, we'd say, "a painted glass" or "a glass with a painting on it" for better clarity.

4. The curtains do not match with the furniture. The phrase "match with" is often better expressed simply as "match the furniture" or "go with the furniture."

Based on this evaluation, the sentences that correctly use "with" are 1 & 2.
