The robber parked the car a mile from the road

Answer 2

Answer:

The robber parked the car a mile from the road.

Explanation:

The word 'from' is a preposition.

Prepositions are words that show the relationship between two nouns or pronouns. Here, the word 'from' shows the relationship between the 'car' and the 'road'.

Other examples are:

• The cow sits under the tree.

• The children run through the corridor.

• She swam across the river.

• The money was in the drawer.

• I went to the bank.

In the above examples, the prepositions are underlined and the nouns or pronouns are emboldened.
