The correct answer is option 1.
'Consequent upon' means 'depending upon'. This does not fit the context of the sentence and does not make it meaningful. Therefore, it needs to be corrected.
The sentence suggests that 'Before taking extreme measures, his father once again warned him'.
'Prejudiced against' means 'to have a negative attitude towards someone based on race or ethnicity rather than personal experience'. This can not be used as it does not fit the context of the sentence.
'Disqualified from' means 'to be declared ineligible for an office, activity or competition because of an offense or infringement'. This also can not be used as it does not fit the context of the sentence.
'Subsequent to' means 'coming after something in time' or 'following'. It means the exact opposite of what the sentence implies and therefore it can not be used.
'Preparatory to' means 'as preparation for' or 'before'. It completely fits the context of the sentence.
Thus, the correct answer is option 1. i.e., Only D.
