    This document is an English grammar lesson from EC English language Schools about using the prepositions "in", "on", and "at" to indicate location. It explains that "at" is used to indicate a specific point, "in" is used for enclosed spaces, and "on" is used for surfaces. It provides examples for each and then a 10 question exercise for learners to practice selecting the correct preposition. In the comments section, some learners discuss answers they found confusing like "river", "farm", and "page" and the teacher provides clarification on these cases.
