Select the sentence with the most appropriate use of preposition.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Reetu slept all through the history class.

Context: We need a preposition that indicates the action continued for the entire duration of the class.

Meaning of the words:

  • Into → shows movement towards the inside. Incorrect in this context.

  • Through → from the beginning to the end of a period of time. Correct usage here.

  • In → indicates location, not the sense of continuity.

  • During → indicates some time within a period, not necessarily the whole time.

Correct word: Through

Reason: Only through conveys the meaning that Reetu slept for the entire class duration.

Final Sentence: Reetu slept all through the history class.

Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
