We had to wait at the airport for five hours _____ take-off
(1) before
(2) at
(3) along
(4) over

Answer 1

Answer: The appropriate preposition in this context would be Option 1 "before."

"We had to wait at the airport for five hours before take-off"

Explanation:

• "Before" is used when something has to happen first before another event, here in this context before take off happen, waiting is required

• "At" is used to indicate a specific point in time, which doesn't make sense in this context.

• "Along" is used when something happens at the same time as something else, which doesn't make sense in this context.

• "Over" would not be appropriate in this context.
