B Correct answer
Explanation

The verb 'sympathize' requires the preposition 'with' when indicating the object of sympathy or empathy. 'Sympathize with someone' means to feel compassion or understanding for their situation. 'Sympathize at', 'sympathize for', and 'sympathize on' are not correct collocations.
