Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
She would sit for hours listening _____ the songs of the birds.

• A. to
• B. from
• C. at
• D. with

Answer 1

The correct option is A to

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.

The correct answer is option A) to as it provides an answer to what she would listen to ( the song of the birds).

'From', 'at' and 'with' cannot be used here as they indicate a source, a location, and inclusion of something.

She would sit for hours listening to the songs of the birds.
