About Preposition MCQs
This English topic focuses on fixed prepositional patterns and idioms. Examples include charged ten rupees for a book, persisted in an idea, took him by the hand, jump to a conclusion, amused us with jokes and bad at maths. Some items test travel and place expressions, such as by aeroplane rather than on aeroplane, and arrived in a city. A few sentences also mix in subject-verb agreement and other grammar points around the preposition.
Prepositions rarely follow logic, so learners in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh often translate patterns from their first language and make mistakes. Examiners know this and include preposition blanks in nearly every English section. Steady practice with these MCQs helps you absorb the natural collocations of English verbs, adjectives and nouns, which improves both objective scores and written answers in essays and precis.
Key facts to remember
- Persist is followed by in, as in he persisted in his silly ideas.
- Good and bad take at for skills, as in she is bad at maths.
- We travel by aeroplane, by bus or by train, but on foot.
- Arrive in is used for cities and countries, and arrive at for smaller places.
- The idiom is jump to a conclusion, meaning to decide too quickly.

- For time and place blanks, recall the in, on, at pattern: in for months and cities, on for days, at for exact times.
