Answer:

C. After

Explanation:

A preposition is a word that indicates relationship to another word, which usually is a noun. There is only one preposition in this sentence; it is after, a preposition of time. It helps us understand time connections in the sentence.

The word to is not a preposition in this sentence; it is an infinitive marker. It indicates that the verb <em>end</em> is in the infinitive.

B. After
A preposition is a word that comes before a noun that tells the reader where one noun is in relation to another noun. In the sentence, after tells when she ended the dinner. In this case "After a disastrous dinner" is the entire prepositional phrase. Sometimes the word to is considered a preposition. However, in this case, it is part of the infinitive form of the verb end.
