Complete the phrasal verb GET with the correct preposition:

1. Jane has difficulty in getting her ideas across.

   • This is correct as it stands. "Get across" means to successfully communicate ideas.

2. This boring film gets me [down].

   • The correct preposition here is "down." "Get down" means to make someone feel sad or depressed.

3. Don't worry. You'll get [over] the flu.

   • Here, the correct preposition is "over." "Get over" means to recover from an illness or an upsetting or unpleasant experience.

4. The sooner we start doing our homework, the sooner we get it [done/over with].

   • "Done" or "over with" can be used here. "Get done" means to complete, and "get over with" means to finish something that is unpleasant but necessary.

5. Does he get [along/on] with his classmates?

   • Either "along" or "on" can be used here. "Get along/on" means to have a good relationship.

Fill in the gaps with the correct preposition:

1. She isn't close [to] her mom.

   • "To" is the correct preposition. Being "close to" someone means having a strong relationship with them.

2. My nephew is very good [at] singing.

   • "At" is used here. When someone is skilled in a particular activity, we use "good at."

3. We are proud [of] our successful stage play.

   • "Of" is the correct preposition. You are "proud of" something you have achieved.

4. She's very popular [with/among] her students.

   • Either "with" or "among" can be used. A person is popular "with" or "among" a group when they are liked by many in that group.

5. You shouldn't be jealous [of] other people's achievements.

   • "Of" is used here. Feeling "jealous of" someone means envying what they have.

6. He's keen [on] Physics.

   • "On" is the correct preposition. When you are very interested in something, you are "keen on" it.

7. I am not patient [with] selfish people.

   • "With" is used here. Being "patient with" someone means you tolerate their behavior without getting annoyed.

8. I'm very fond [of] acting.

   • "Of" is the correct preposition. When you like something very much, you are "fond of" it.

9. Don't be nervous [about] seeing a dentist.

   • "About" is used here. If you are anxious or apprehensive regarding something, you are "nervous about" it.
