Question

Identify and use the correct prepositional phrase:
______ the chair sat moldering in the attic.

• A. Sad to say
• B. For one hundred years
• C. Incredibly
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B For one hundred years

Prepositional phrases are a group of words containing preposition which lacks either a verb or a subject. Such phrases always have two basic parts: object and preposition. Prepositions are mostly followed by objects.

Using option B will justify all the above rules. 'For' is the preposition and 'years' is the object.

Options A and C are not prepositional phrases.

Thus, option B is the correct answer.
