Correct Answer
B and D only
Detailed Explanation
In sentence B, the preposition "after" is used correctly to indicate the time sequence, showing that they watched a movie after having lunch.
In sentence D, the preposition "to" is used correctly to indicate the direction or destination of tracing the missing truck back to its owner.
Sentences A and C have incorrect preposition usage. In sentence A, "trace about the car" is not a standard or correct usage of "trace." In sentence C, "prevented him to come" should be "prevented him from coming," with "from" being the correct preposition to show the source of prevention.
