    Question

    Choose the correct alternative which will improve the part of the sentence given in quotes.

    A.

    On

    B.

    At

    For

    D.

    No improvement

    Correct option is A

    The correct substitution of the quoted words is "on".
    Explanation: "In" is incorrect when referring to specific dates; "on" is the proper preposition to use. This is because "on" is used for specific days and dates, while "in" is generally used for months, years, and longer periods.
    Grammatical rule used: Use "on" for specific days and dates.
    Example: I was born on July 4th, 1990.
