'. . . looking at the world passing beneath him.'

The underlined word is a/an __________.

  • A.article
  • B.preposition
  • C.adverb
  • D.conjunction

Answer: B

'Beneath' is a preposition.

In 'the world passing beneath him', 'beneath' is followed by the pronoun 'him' and shows the relation of position between the world and him. A word that relates a noun or pronoun to another word in this way is a preposition.

'Beneath' can be an adverb when it has no object ('the ground beneath'), but here it has the object 'him'. It is not an article (a, an, the) or a conjunction.
