  4. off
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

When something falls from a surface or position it was on, we use the phrasal verb 'fall off'. The glass was in his hand, and then it fell from that position, so 'off' is correct. 'In' would mean falling inside his hand, 'into' would mean entering something, and 'of' doesn't form a correct phrasal verb here.
