The sports day of this year went well.

Answer 2

Answer :

This question is based on prepositions and phrasal verbs.

The correct sentence is :

The sports day went off well this year.

In the given sentence, the preposition 'off' will be used to form the phrasal verb 'went off.'

Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines 'phrasal verb' as 'a phrase (such as take off or look down on) that combines a verb with a preposition or adverb or both and that functions as a verb whose meaning is different from the combined meanings of the individual words.'

Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines the phrasal verb 'go off' as ': to follow the expected or desired course : proceed.'
