Correct Answer: D

Choice D is the best answer. The adjective "oblivious" is conventionally followed by the preposition "to."

Choice A is incorrect because "oblivious with" is not standard usage. Choice B is incorrect because "oblivious on" is not standard usage. Choice C is incorrect because "oblivious by" is not standard usage.
