Answers
Required Correct Answer:
ii) He lives on a small island.
Explanation:
Let's first analyze the other three options that we ruled out as wrong.
Option 1:
Green pepper is very rich of Vitamin C.
The required correct answer is:
Green pepper is very rich in Vitamin C.
Explanation:
Whenever we say, something is contains specific minerals or nutrients, we say that the specific thing is good in that vitamin or mineral. We always use the preposition in in such cases.
Option 3:
She cares on the environment.
The required correct answer is:
She cares for the environment.
Explanation:
We always care for someone or something. Thus, when we use the word care, the preposition for succeeds it when used in such a context. Thus the required answer is for.
Option 4:
It was kind in you to help.
The required correct answer is:
It was kind of you to help.
Explanation:
We appreciate people using the phrase kind of. When used in such a context, kind is always succeeded by the preposition of. Hence the required answer is of.
We can clearly see that these three options are wrong. Hence the required answer is Option 2.
