This comes from an exercise I found online. It doesn't come with an answer key. Could you kindly check it for me?



Write the preposition to fill the gaps.

2.2. Are you going to work _______on______ the summer holidays?

I'm torn between in and on.
 
"On" is wrong; "in" is possible, and so is "during".
 
Jack and Mack

Jack: Mack, are you going to work during the summer holidays?
Mack: You should know. You're my boss.
Jack: Oh yeah! That's right!
:)
 
In BrE, at least, "over" also works.
