Choose the option that fills the blank with the most suitable word:

_____ all his searching, he still could not find a suitable house to live in.

• A. after
• B. from
• C. with
• D. in

Answer 1

The correct option is A after

A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words. Option A)after is correct as it means following in order, time etc. The other options are wrong as from, with, and in indicate a source, inclusion, and the inside of an area respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is A)after.
