Answer 1

Here's a list of common prepositions.

In your sentences, I've enclosed the prepositional phrases in parentheses. The first word in each phrase is a preposition.

1)Chhirps (of the newly hatched chicks) could be heard (in the corridor).

2)A plane made an emergancy landing (in a corn field).

3)The elephants lumbered (past us) (toward the water hole).

Prepositions don't have subjects.
