Question : Directions: In this question, a sentence is given with a blank to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested for each question. Choose the correct alternative out of the four alternatives.
With danger ____ the door, you cannot sit idle.
Option 1: At
Option 2: In
Option 3: Of
Option 4: Near
Correct Answer: At
Solution : The correct word to fill in the blank is the first option.
At the door means the danger is right at the door, which effectively conveys the intended meaning.
The other prepositions (in, of, and near) do not make sense, and they do not convey the intended meaning of the sentence.
So, the sentence should be: "With danger at the door, you cannot sit idle."
