Choose the appropriate preposition to fill in the blank.

What did you make __________ the lecture ?

  • A.on
  • B.off
  • C.of
  • D.None of these

Answer: C

The preposition is of: What did you make of the lecture?

Make of means to understand or form an opinion about something. The question asks what the listener thought of the lecture.

Make on and make off do not fit: 'make off' means to leave hurriedly, as in the thief made off with the bag. Since 'of' completes the phrase, 'None of these' is wrong.

Similar phrasal verbs with make include make out (to understand or see), make up (to invent or to reconcile) and make for (to head towards).
