Question

He asked it to sing a song ___6___ him.

• A. for
• B. of
• C. at
• D. in

Answer 1

The correct option is A for

In this given sentence we use the preposition of cause to set the meaning. Preposition of cause is generally used to show the reason for something happening or the purpose of an action.

In this sentence, the fox becomes the recipient of the song from the crow.

Therefore option A 'for' is the correct preposition of purpose used here, as the purpose of the song is for him (fox) to listen.

'In' is generally used to indicate position within or inside something.

'Of' usually shows possession, belonging or origin.

‘At’, is used to denote a place or spot.

Therefore Options B, C, D are incorrect as they do not fit in the context of the sentence.
