He asked me to meet him ______ the station.

• A. At
• B. By
• C. Near
• D. Around

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is choosing the preposition that pinpoints where the meeting will take place. When we say “meet someone at the station,” we’re indicating a precise point—the exact location of the station where the meeting will occur. This is the natural way to describe a fixed meeting point.

Using other prepositions changes the meaning. “By the station” suggests being near the station, not necessarily at it. “Near the station” implies close to it but not at the location itself. “Around the station” points to the surrounding area, not a specific spot. Since the sentence asks for the place of the meeting with a definite location, the correct choice is at the station.
