Solution

The correct option is D In
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 D)in is correct as it indicates a time period (here afternoon). The other options are wrong as with, on, and at indicate inclusion, a surface, and a specific location respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is D)in.
