 prepare and prepare for
Dear teachers,
Please read the sentence:
His request to go to the front was turned down. He was odered to stay in the rear to ___________ the counterattack.
a. prepare b. prepare for
The key is 'a'. Could you please explain why 'b' isn't correct? If 'b' is possible could you please explain the difference between the two?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.
