Someone has pasted a notice _____ the wall.

  • A.over
  • B.behind
  • C.with
  • D.on

Answer: D

The sentence reads Someone has pasted a notice on the wall.

On is used for something in contact with and supported by a surface, which is exactly where a pasted notice is.

Over the wall suggests above it or covering it, behind the wall would hide the notice from view, and with the wall makes no sense of location. A notice is pasted on a wall.

'Paste', 'stick' and 'hang' all take 'on' for a surface: a poster on the wall, a picture on the wall.
