Jingtian  +  349594 Wed, 11 Apr 07 04:36 PM Hello, I don't know which preposition should be used in thse two blanks separately. Two cats are running _ the wall. The boy is jumping _ the branch. By the way, such prepositions are given: across, over, between, off, along, in, on, into, out of, under. I guess "along" is OK for the first blank, and "off" can be used in the second. Is it correct?

Of the choices given, I think along is the best for the first sentence and off for the sencond (but I don't find it a very clear image).

There are many correct prepositions for these contexts. Your choices are fine.
