Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank number 3.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. on.
Context: The sentence talks about generations working the land. The correct preposition should indicate working the same piece of land.
Meaning of the words:
-
with – implies accompaniment, not suitable here
-
in – implies being inside something, incorrect for land usage
-
at – indicates a point or location, less appropriate for farming context
-
on – correct, used to indicate working on the land
Correct word: On, because generations labor on the same land.
Final Sentence: Farming is the main employment, and generations labour on the same land.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
