1. We got **on** the plane and sat in our seats.
Explanation: When we talk about getting onto a mode of transportation, we use the preposition "on". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about getting onto the plane, so we use "on" followed by the noun "the plane".

2. She came out of the station and got **in** the taxi.
Explanation: When we talk about getting into a vehicle, we use the preposition "in". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about getting into the taxi, so we use "in" followed by the noun "the taxi".

3. He got **in** the car and drove all the way to Leeds.
Explanation: Similar to the previous sentence, when we talk about getting into a car, we use the preposition "in". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about getting into the car, so we use "in" followed by the noun "the car".

4. She usually comes to college **by** train.
Explanation: When we talk about the mode of transportation used to reach a destination, we use the preposition "by". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about using the train as the mode of transportation, so we use "by" followed by the noun "train".

5. You can travel from Middlesbrough to London **by** coach or **by** car.
Explanation: Similar to the previous sentence, when we talk about the mode of transportation used to travel between two places, we use the preposition "by". In this sentence, the speaker is mentioning two options - coach or car - both of which can be used to travel from Middlesbrough to London. Therefore, we use "by" before both nouns "coach" and "car".

6. Did you come **by** car or **by** bus?
Explanation: Again, when we talk about the mode of transportation used for coming or arriving somewhere, we use the preposition "by". In this sentence, the speaker is asking whether the person came by car or bus, so we use "by" before both nouns "car" and "bus".
