Don't entrust me ________ these many responsibilities.

  • A.by
  • B.with
  • C.in
  • D.for

Answer: B

The correct word is with.

The verb entrust takes two patterns: you entrust a person with a task or thing, or you entrust a task or thing to a person. Here the person ('me') comes directly after the verb, so the task must follow 'with': 'Don't entrust me with these many responsibilities.'

'By', 'in' and 'for' are not used with 'entrust' in this construction. 'Entrust me by' and 'entrust me in' are ungrammatical, and 'entrust me for' would wrongly suggest purpose rather than the thing handed over.
