Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
The adjective suited is followed by the preposition “to” (suited to something).
Example: We should live in a style suited to our condition.
Why “to” is correct: it expresses compatibility or appropriateness between the adjective and the noun that follows.
Rule: Use suited + to when indicating that something is appropriate or matches something else.
Why other prepositions are wrong here: “for” is not the preferred collocation for this adjective in this sense; “at” indicates location or time; “towards” indicates direction rather than suitability.
