Which phrase correctly completes the sentence: Peter always ___ her feet when he dances?

• A. Steps on
• B. Steps off
• C. Steps over
• D. Steps away

Answer: (A)

Using the phrasal verb step on to describe contact with someone’s foot during an activity like dancing. In English, step on takes a direct object to show what is being touched by the foot, so “Peter always steps on her feet when he dances” naturally expresses the idea of repeatedly landing his feet on hers.

The other options don’t fit the intended meaning. Step(s) off would suggest lifting away or leaving contact, which isn’t about landing on her feet. Step(s) over would imply moving over her feet without contact. Step(s) away would mean moving away from her, not during the dancing interaction.
