SSC CGL 2016 (Tier 1) Previous Year Question Paper (11-Sep-2016) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

to

The correct answer is option 2, "to".

The original sentence uses the preposition "at" incorrectly. "At" indicates a specific point or location, often used with smaller areas or places. When referring to sending something to an address, which represents a larger location capable of receiving mail, we need a preposition indicating direction or destination. "To" is the appropriate preposition in this context, clearly showing the letter's destination is the address provided. Using "to" clarifies the intent and makes the sentence grammatically correct and precise. The other options are incorrect because "on" suggests a surface, "in" suggests enclosure, and "at" is inappropriately vague for an address.

Therefore, the improved sentence is: "Please make it a point to send the letter to my address."
