Why don't you sit _____ me?

Anext

Bclose

Cbeside

Dbesides

Answer:

C. beside

Read Explanation:

  • beside: This means "by the side of" or "next to" someone or something. It fits the sentence perfectly to mean "Why don't you sit next to me?".

  • besides: This means "in addition to" or "apart from" (e.g., "What do you like besides football?"). It does not fit here.

  • next: This requires the preposition "to" after it to be grammatically correct in this context ("Why don't you sit next to me?").

  • close: This requires the preposition "to" after it to be grammatically correct here ("Why don't you sit close to me?").
