Fill in the blank with suitable preposition.

Rupa was happy to receive a letter ________ her friend Vimal after a long time.

  • A.to
  • B.from
  • C.for
  • D.by

Answer: B

The suitable preposition is from: 'Rupa was happy to receive a letter from her friend Vimal.'

The verb 'receive' takes from to name the sender: we receive something from someone.

'To' would mark the person the letter was sent to, which reverses the meaning. 'For' would mean the letter was meant for Vimal, and 'by' is used for the doer in a passive sentence (a letter written by Vimal), not with 'receive'.
