Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:

When I called Hishma for directions, she said that her house is ten kilometers ___ the highway.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

'Off' indicates distance away from a road or route: 'ten kilometers off the highway' means located at that distance from the highway. 'By', 'away' and 'at' do not idiomatically express this relation; 'away' would require 'from' after it.
