Solution
The correct option is A at The sentence conveys the sense of specification. Therefore 'at' is the suitable answer. Since 'at' is used to specify something or someone. Thus option A is correct. On the other hand 'to' is used to depict a certain direction or destination, hence it is inappropriate for the given sentence. The preposition 'on' is used to depict something above, while 'into' is used to depict something within a territory. Since the sentence speaks about a specific person , option C and D are inappropriate .
The completed sentence thus becomes: She was so angry she threw a chair at me.
