• A. For
• B. About
• C. Of
• D. Against

Hint:

Which preposition follows "accountable" when talking about responsibility for actions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

This question tests the preposition that follows the adjective "accountable" when referring to responsibility for one's actions.

• Option A (For): "Accountable for" is the standard collocation meaning responsible for something one has done. This matches the sentence.
• Option B (About): "Accountable about" is not a recognized usage in English.
• Option C (Of): "Accountable of" is grammatically incorrect.
• Option D (Against): "Accountable against" does not exist as a standard collocation.

The correct answer is A) For, so option 1 is the answer.
