Rules:	A preposition must always have an object of the preposition.
Tests	Remove the prepositional phrase. If the sentence makes sense without it, it is a prepositional phrase. To determine if it’s a preposition or an adverb or verb particle, search for the object. If three is no object, it is either an adverb or verb particle.
