Prepositions Questions in English

(C) When describing movement towards a specific point or distance, both $up to$ and $as far as$ are grammatically correct and interchangeable in this context.
Therefore, the correct choice is $C$.

(C) When referring to the time remaining before a future event,both 'to' and 'until' are grammatically acceptable and commonly used. Therefore,the sentence can be written as 'It is another two weeks to the exams' or 'It is another two weeks until the exams'.

(D) In English grammar,when used after negative expressions like 'no','nothing',or 'nobody',the prepositions 'except','besides',and 'apart from' are often interchangeable as they all convey the meaning of 'excluding' or 'other than'.
Since the sentence contains the negative word 'nothing',all three options ($except$,$besides$,and $apart from$) are grammatically correct in this context.
Therefore,the most appropriate choice is $all of the above$.

(D) Both $under$ and $underneath$ can be used to indicate something that is covered by another object.
