Correct answer: C. Up
- A. On
- B. In
- C. Up
- D. Down
Explanation
'On' is concerned with shorter, more specific periods of time.'Down' is used as a preposition (followed by a noun) and after the verb 'to be'. 'In' is directly related to positions and longer periods of time, which in this case cannot be used. 'Up', however, is an adverb used to talk about moving towards a higher position, value, number or level hence it is correct.

About Prepositions
Prepositions link a noun or pronoun to the rest of the sentence, showing place, time, direction or relation. The difficulty is idiomatic rather than logical: English fixes particular prepositions to particular verbs and adjectives, so “good at,” “married to” and “differ from” have to be learned as units rather than reasoned out.
