Question 1 / 100

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains an INCORRECT preposition.

I am writing to invite you / to give a presentation / for our Jobs and Careers Conference / for engineering graduates.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. for our Jobs and Careers Conference.

The preposition "for" in "for our Jobs and Careers Conference" is incorrect because it indicates purpose or benefit, whereas the sentence refers to the location or occasion of the event.

The correct preposition is "at," as it specifies the event where the presentation will take place.

Therefore, the correct phrase is "at our Jobs and Careers Conference," ensuring the sentence properly conveys the intended meaning.
