• A. of
• B. with
• C. to
• D. against

Hint:

Never use ``with'' after ``married'' when referring to the spouse.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Identify the verb requiring a preposition.
The verb is "married" and we need the preposition that correctly pairs with it.
Step 2: Apply the standard collocation.
In standard English, "married to" is the correct phrase (e.g., She is married to a doctor). "Married with" is a very common learner error to avoid.
Step 3: Complete the sentence.
"He is married to an advocate" is the grammatically correct and natural sentence.
\[ \boxed{\text{to}} \]
