Hello there! I commend you because you tried your best in answering the homework. I would love to give more explanations how to use the prepositions. I hope this will help.^^ The prepositions \'in,\' \'at,\' and \'on\' for indicating place and location. The general rule is to use \'in\' for an enclosed space, \'at\' for a point, and \'on\' for a surface. Here are some specific guidelines for their use in American English: Use \'in\' for spaces: \'They always meet in a secret room [in a suburban hotel, in a parking lot, in a farm, in a ricefield].\' Use \'in\' for names of specific land areas: \'She lives in a quiet town [ in the island of Palawan, in the Philippines, in Southeast Asia]. Use \'in\' for bodies of water: \'That kind of fish thrives in freshwater [in the river, in the lake, in streams, in the sea].\' Use \'in\' for lines: \'The registrants are in a row [in a line, in a queue].\' Use \'at\' to indicate points: \'You\'ll find us at the entrance [at the taxi stand, at the supermarket, at the intersection].\' Use \'at\' for specific addresses, as in \'She lives at 40 Lilac St.\' Use \'on\' for names of streets, roads, avenues, and boulevards: \'Her apartment is on San Pablo Street [on Ortigas Avenue, on Santolan Road, on Roxas Boulevard].\' Use \'on\' for surfaces: \'There\'s a large stain on the floor [on the wall, on the ceiling, on the roof].\' The prepositions \'in,\' \'at,\' and \'on\' for indicating location. Use \'in\' in these cases: \'The children are in the kitchen [in the garden, in the car, in the library, in the class, in school]. (The article \'the\' is mandatory except for the fourth and last example.) Use \'at\' in these particular cases: \'She was at home [at the library, at the office, at school, at work] when we arrived.\' Use \'on\' in these particular cases: \'They are on the plane [on the train, on the boat].\' Some locations, though, don\'t need a preposition between them and the verb: \'They sleep downstairs [inside, outside, downtown, upstairs, uptown].\' See you in our class!
