Which sentences contain prepositions? Check all that apply.Lena bought a new table to put the sculpture on.At what time is the performance scheduled to begin?The committee includes three students and two teachers.That is the house in which I grew up.Jonathan looked under his desk for the lost keys.

Answer
A
Lena bought a new table to put the sculpture on.
B
At what time is the performance scheduled to begin?
C
The committee includes three students and two teachers.
D
That is the house in which I grew up.
E
Jonathan looked under his desk for the lost keys.

Explanation

A contains the preposition “on,” which relates the sculpture to the table. B uses “at” to show the time being asked about; “to begin” uses “to” before a verb, so it is not a preposition here. D contains “in,” and E contains “under” and “for.” C has no preposition: “and” joins two groups of people.
