Answer 2

She threw the ball into the pond.

Explanation:

• Prepositions are parts of a Speech which are used to relate the relation between objects, distance, position, time intervals, and other factors which would specify the nature or connect the subject and the object in a sentence.
• Some examples of prepositions are in, on, above, from, inside, beside, to, into, onto, etc
• In the sentence "She threw the ball into the pond", into means within, as in the ball could be contained in the pond.
• Options (b) on would mean above and (c) under would mean at the bottom.
• Option (d) of means possession, the ball does not belong to the pond,  so its not the answer.
• As the ball thrown floats, the appropriate option is into because the pond is of lower surface than of land but cannot sink the ball under water. Therefore option (a) into is the appropriate blank.
