Question

Choose the correct option: 

Options
  • A

    Hand up the answer sheet to me. 

  • B

    Hand over the answer sheet to me. 

  • C

    Hand down the answer sheet to me. 

  • D

    Hand for the answer sheet to me. 

Explanation

"Hand over" is the correct phrasal verb.

a) Hand up the answer sheet to me: This option is not commonly used and may not convey the intended meaning clearly. "Hand up" is not a standard expression for giving something to someone. 

Hand over” is the correct phrasal verb to use in this case.

b) Hand over the answer sheet to me: This is the correct and commonly used phrase. It means to pass or give something to someone, in this case, the answer sheet. 

c) Hand down the answer sheet to me: This option is not commonly used and may not convey the intended meaning clearly. "Hand down" typically refers to passing something from a higher position to a lower position. 

d) Hand for the answer sheet to me: This option is not grammatically correct. The correct preposition to use in this context is "over" as in option b.
