The distinction between phrasal verbs (verb + particle) and prepositional verbs (verb + preposition) is based on syntactic tests like particle movement. Based on the transitivity and separability of multi-word verbs, choose the CORRECT alternative.
  1. AThe manager decided to call off the meeting, but it would be ungrammatical to say "to call the meeting off" due to the fixed nature of the particle.
  2. BThe manager decided to call off the meeting, which can also be CORRECTLY phrased as "to call the meeting off" because it is a transitive phrasal verb.
  3. CThe manager decided to put up with the noise, which allows for the particle "up" to be moved after the object "noise" in formal writing.
  4. DThe manager decided to look after the files, which can also be CORRECTLY phrased as "to look the files after" because it is a prepositional verb.
