Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
I am interested ____ swimming.

• A. for
• B. in
• C. to
• D. at

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

in

The sentence indicates that the subject's interests include swimming. Thus, the answer must indicate 'inclusion' of swimming in the subject's interests.

Option A is incorrect. 'for' indicates purpose and not inclusion. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.

Option B is correct. 'in' indicates inclusion within something. Thus, it has the required meaning and is the correct answer.

Option C is incorrect. 'to' indicates direction or destination and not inclusion. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.

Option D is incorrect. 'at' indicates place or location and not inclusion. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
