Which words make up the prepositional phrases in this sentence? Jane found her glasses on the bookshelf near the bed. A. near the bed / on the bookshelf B. on the bookshelf / found her glasses C. Jane found / her glasses D. her glasses / near the bed



Answer :

The answer is a I believe. Think of it this way: the bee _____ the bottle. Fill in a word there. If it makes sense, it's a preposition. I.e. The bee enters the bottle. The bee opens the bottle The bee is the bottle. There are a few acceptions, though.

Jonesie is correct, but the examples they provide with the bee are wrong. Words like enter and so forth are all verbs, not prepositions.
