She dwells too much ....... her past.

  • A.upon
  • B.in
  • C.about
  • D.to

Answer: A

The right preposition is upon: 'She dwells too much upon her past.'

The phrasal verb dwell on or dwell upon means to think, speak or write at length about something, usually something one would do better to leave behind. Upon is the slightly more formal form of the same idiom.

Dwell in means to live in a place ('to dwell in a village'), which does not fit a person's past. Dwell about and dwell to are not idioms in English.
