Feedback Prepositions are short words (on, in, to) that usually stand in front of nouns, pronouns, proper names and gerund. There are over 100 prepositions in English. But there are hardly any rules as to when to use which preposition. We can learn prepositions by several ways: (1) look them up in a dictionary, (2) read a lot in English and (3) learn useful phrases with prepositions by heart.In the test sentence ‘I don't like most of popular shows _____ television.’ we need the preposition of place: where? → on television (‘being broadcast by television’). In this case we talk about television in the sense of television programmes that are broadcast.The word ‘TV’ is more common than saying the complete word ‘television’: on TV.
C. in
D. by
