In the question below choose the word(s) or phrase which best fills the gap:

A number of suspects were paraded .... the victim of the robbery

  • A in front
  • B before
  • C for
  • D to

The correct answer is B. before

The word "before" is a preposition that means in front of or earlier than someone or something in time, order, or position.

This word fits the meaning and grammar of the sentence, as it expresses that the suspects were shown to the victim in order to identify them.
