Question

Choose the appropriate preposition and fill in the blank:

Ken showed me a photograph _____ the home where he lived as a child.

• A. of
• B. to
• C. for
• D. with

Answer 1

The correct option is A of

The given sentence indicates an essence of belonging, a picture of the home where Ken's childhood belong to. Therefore 'of' is the suitable answer, since 'of' is used to convey a sense of belonging. Hence option A is correct. On the other hand 'to' is used to indicate a direction of something/somebody. Thus option B is incorrect. The preposition 'for' is used to indicate the use of something, while 'with' conveys the sense of a company. Thus the sentence conveys an idea of belonging, 'for' and 'with' are unsuitable in the given context. Thus option C and D are incorrect.

Thus the completed sentence becomes: Ken showed me a photograph of the home where he lived as a child.
