What do we have to do? Do we have to fill blanks with prepositions?

01-The sun.............in the west. How can we use an appropriate preposition?

If I fill it. I will have to use a verb "SET". and, it is not a preposition at all.

02-Some people...........the Prime Minister this morning?

It is not a question, how is there a question mark[B]?[/B]


[B]Same case is with many other questions.

You are right correction is needed, it should be mentioned on the post that whether the blanks are to be filled with Verb, preposition or adjective.

Yes these should be taken from authentic source so that finally answers can be verified after members attempt the exercises. Regards.
