Answer 1

The task is to fill in the correct prepositions in a story titled The Camel and the Jackal. While the right prepositions cannot be determined without the story context, prepositions are words that express relations of direction, location, time, or means in a sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question from the student involves filling in the blanks with the correct prepositions in the story titled The Camel and the Jackal. Each set of prepositions provided corresponds to the gaps in the story that need to be filled. Without the context of the story, it's not possible to give a definitive answer to which set of prepositions is correct. However, I can explain the concept of prepositions and their use in a sentence. Prepositions are words that typically express a relation of a noun or pronoun to another word in the clause, indicating direction, location, time, or the means by which something is done.

For example, one might use 'in' to denote a location within something, 'on' to denote a surface, 'across' to talk about moving from one side to another, and 'at' to denote a specific point or location. The choices 'with', 'to', and 'over' can indicate accompaniment, direction towards something, and movement above something, respectively.

Example

"The book is on the table." - Here, 'on' denotes that the book is resting upon the surface of the table.

"I will meet you at the library." - 'At' is used to specify the location where the meeting will occur.
