for/of/with/about
Hi, could anybody help me choosing the correct answer?
When I opened the envelope I found a cheque for/of $100.
Why are you rude with him? Can't you be nice to/with him?
I'm disappointed with/ about the hotel.
She's excited at/about her new job.
We weren't very impressed with/by his appearence.
I felt sorry about/for the children. They couln't go to the party.
Any rules for that uses?
