Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable preposition:

George fell ________ a wall and broke his leg.

• A. Of
• B. By
• C. Off
• D. Up

Answer 1

The correct option is C Off

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 C)off is correct as it means away from. The other options are wrong as of, by, and up indicate possession, usage, and a movement towards a higher point respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is C)off.
