D. Around / in

Answer 1

Hint: Here we need first see what we can use as the proposition and think about the noun and pronoun as they come before i,e., proposition is a word that comes before noun or pronoun.we need to think it and then select the option.

Complete answer:
A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words.

Option A is correct : this option At / on is correct because as they indicate a specific time and specific days respectively. That is specific action taking place so this option is the correct answer and we can use this as the correct one.

Option B is incorrect : This option that is At / in is wrong because it does not specify the correct time and it is not specific about the time and the day as given in the question so we are not using this as the correct answer.

Option C is incorrect : This is also incorrect that is About / at because it is not specifying the exact time it is about that is given which is not specific so this option is incorrect .

Option D is incorrect : This is Around / in option and here it is not specific it is approximate time and it is not exact so this seems to be wrong and we are not using this as the write answer.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘A’.

Note::We need remember about the proposition that comes before the noun and pronoun and we have to read the sentence carefully and select the option and sometimes it may seems to be same so use exact proposition that suits the sentence..And make sure that the option given in the question matches exactly and correct.So we need to read the sentence carefully and answer it using exact option.
