    B. We have every desire and hope of a substantial salary increase.

    Explanation:

    Prepositions are used along with a noun or a pronoun to indicate a relationship with another word or element in the clause. It makes an idea clearer.

    Examples of prepositions are at, for, if, on, in, over, and under.

    These are used to describe location time or place. However we should avoid unnecessary use of prepositions.

    In this instance the use of for in the following sentence is unnecessary, as 'every desire' is adequate : 'We have every desire for and hope of a substantial salary increase. '

    We have every desire and hope of a substantial salary increase. Is a more concise and better option
