She is skeptical ____ the results of the survey.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Correct Answer: about
Explanation:
The adjective skeptical (meaning doubtful or unconvinced) is standardly followed by the prepositions about or of.
Example:
Many experts remain skeptical about the claims made by the company.
The other prepositions (on, with, for) do not pair correctly with 'skeptical' in this context.
