Question

Choose the correct combination of prepositions to complete the sentence: 
"The cat jumped ______  the table ________ the chair."

• A. on, from
• B. off, in
• C. into, beside
• D. onto, towards

Hint:

Use "onto" when describing a motion towards a surface, and "towards" to describe direction.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the prepositions.
"onto" is used when something moves to a surface or place, so it's appropriate to describe the cat jumping onto the chair.
"towards" is used to describe the direction of movement, so it is suitable here as the cat is moving in the direction of the chair. 
Step 2: Conclusion.
The sentence correctly reads: "The cat jumped {onto} the table {towards} the chair." Thus, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{{onto, towards}}. \]
