Question

The car was parked in front of the store. Choose the preposition that would be unsuitable to the one underlined.

• A. Across
• B. Next to
• C. On
• D. At the back

Hint:

Use prepositions of place carefully—words like \textbf{on}, \textbf{in}, and \textbf{at} must logically match the position being described.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Identify the underlined prepositional phrase “in front of the store”, which indicates position or location.
Step 2: Check each option to see whether it can logically replace the given preposition:

Across the store – indicates location relative to the store and is grammatically acceptable.
Next to the store – correctly shows position beside the store.
At the back of the store – also indicates a valid location.
On the store – is incorrect because a car cannot be parked on a store.

Step 3: Therefore, the unsuitable preposition is “on”.
