Question

Amit prefers to work …. a farm. (Fill in the blanks with the correct Preposition)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Amit prefers to work in a farm

Answer 2

Answer:

Amit prefers to work on a farm

Explanation:

This is simply because when talking about things situated on a farm, we always say on the farm.

However, when we are talking about cities and towns, we usually say in the city or in town. I guess, the easiest way to understand why is think of what a farm and a city really are. A farm is just a plot of land and we think of land as being two-dimensional. And with two dimensions, we tend to use the preposition on. A city, on the other hand, is a three-dimensional structure: you've got high-rise apartment buildings, skyscrapers, maybe, a subway system, et cetera. With all that stuff, you need 3D space.
