Prepositions

Naomi is keen ......... working in Africa this coming year.

Last week I was held up ......... four hours because of the traffic.

I just got a large Christmas bonus so I'm going ..... a shopping spree. I'm going to buy a lot of clothes and shoes. I can't wait!

I'd like to wrap up the meeting now. So, ..... conclusion, the new budget plans will begin in January and I hope that you will all be able to work within them.

I can't believe you told Marcy what I said about her. I told you that ..... confidence! I will never be able to trust you again.

I really felt ..... of place at that nightclub the other night. I haven't been to a place like that in years and I wasn't really comfortable at all.

I need you to tell me what happened ..... detail. I want to know exactly what took place, who was there with you, and why it happened.

Joe, if you keep starting fights in jail, we will put you ..... solitary confinement for a month.

I used to be very fast until I broke my ankle. It was the last race of the school year and I was ..... the lead. I was so far out ahead, I could not lose. That was when I stepped in the gopher hole and my track career was over.

Please accept this gift from us ..... compliments to your wife. Her dinner party last week was wonderful and elegant. Thanks again.
