Fill the Blank Space with the Correct Answer:

My brother is sick. He was playing .......... the rain.
A. inside B. under C. in D. below.

Correction of 7.

The right answer to the quiz is C- in: Last night, I saw Abigail playing...in...the rain.

You can say, "run under the rain, and it will be understood. This would make it obvious that you're a non-native speaker of the English language.
However,
"In the rain" is the most suitable preposition to use, given that the rain surrounds you. It falls on, and around you.
