Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Key idea: The sentence needs the standard prepositions in the phrases “all of us”, “in the family”, and “for her”.
Use “all of us” to refer to the whole group.
Use “in the family” for membership within the family.
A gift is bought “for” someone.
Answer: Option 3, “of; in; for”, is correct.
