Correct answer and explanation
Correct answer: over
Explanation: ā Correct Answer: C. over š Explanation: The noun 'control' is followed by the preposition 'over' when referring to power or influence exerted on a person, feeling, or situation. Having "no control over" something means you are unable to restrain or manage it. Common mistakes include using 'on' or 'with', but in formal English, 'control over her temper' is the only correct idiomatic expression.
