Feedback We should remember that some nouns are used with specific prepositions after them.We can use three prepositions after the noun ‘influence’ that means ‘the power to have an effect on people or things, or a person or thing that is able to do this’: (1) ‘on’ (Her mom was a strong influence on her.; My father had a strong influence on my early childhood.); (2) ‘over’ (She has a huge amount of influence over her employees.); (3) ‘of’ (When she was a teenager, she was under the influence of her father).Therefore, among the test answers we are to choose ANSWER 2: ‘on’.
C. for
