D Correct answer
Explanation

The phrase 'place on the house' uses the wrong preposition. When referring to position within a building, we use 'in' not 'on'. The correct phrase should be 'place in the house'. 'On the house' would mean on the roof or exterior surface, which doesn't make sense for placing a trophy inside the home.
