Question

Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words.
I'm __________ a class ___________ eight other students.

• A. In / for
• B. At / of
• C. In / with
• D. At / off

Answer 1

The correct option is C In / with

The correct answer is Option C.

The speaker is referring to a specific place i.e. 'class'. Hence IN is the correct preposition that completes the sentence.

There are also eight other students in the class. The word 'WITH' is used to refer to a meaning of togetherness. Eight students are together with the speaker. Hence, WITH is the correct word.

Thus Option C is the correct answer.

The remaining options are incorrect because:

Option A: FOR is used to indicate meaning of 'use' , 'reason' and 'time'.

Option B: AT is used to refer to a particular point of place. OF is used to indicate relationship.

Option D: AT is used to refer to a particular point of place. OFF is when we wish to show separation. Here the intended meaning is that of togetherness.
