Answer 2

Answer: The option that best identifies the preposition and the object of the preposition in the sentence is "preposition, over; object of the preposition, bridge".

Explanation: A preposition is a word used to connect a word, such as a noun, to another word. It usually comes after a noun and is followed by an article or a pronoun. As prepositions are a closed word class, they are limited in number. One of these prepositions is "over", which is included in the sentence provided. "Over" is introducing the prepositional phrase "over the old bridge", which also contains the object of the preposition. Most times, the object of the preposition is a noun:  in the case of this prepositional phrase, the noun "bridge" is acting as the object.
