• D. for

Answer 1

Answer:

B. at

The correct sentence is:

"The mother was happy at** the prospect of meeting her children."**

### Explanation:

- "Happy at" is a correct expression to use when referring to a feeling of happiness or pleasure about an event or prospect.

Though "happy about" is also common, "happy at" is perfectly acceptable in this context, particularly when talking about the prospect of something.

So, both "happy about" and "happy at" can work, but "happy at" is more formal when referring to a future event or opportunity, like the prospect of meeting her children.
