1 through: To "shine through" is a common idiom used often to describe the sun or light in general. The phrase can also be used in other contexts. For example: "His intelligence really shone through during the political debates".
1 around: It is unlikely that one would use the term around to describe the sun "shining". We are expressing that sunlight penetrates the clouds, not that the sunlight "surrounds" the clouds.
1 down: The construction "the sun shines down the clouds" is grammatically incorrect. However, we could say "the sun shines down on the city below".
2 down: The expression "to fall down" is one of the most common phrasal verbs in English. We often say that someone has "fallen down". "Down" indicates the direction that the rain falls (from top to bottom).
2 up: The basic laws of gravity tell us that nothing ever "falls up". One day, perhaps we will defy the earth's gravitational pull, but until that day, this answer will be incorrect.
2 around: We cannot use the preposition "around" to complete this sentence. We cannot follow the preposition "around" with another preposition (upon).
3 up: The expression "to clear up" is often used to describe the weather improving or getting better, especially when the clouds "disappear". This expression can also be used in other contexts. For example "Polly is trying to clear up the mystery of the missing monkey". In this case "to clear up" means "to resolve" or "to understand better".
3 down: One cannot "clear down" something.
3 around: One cannot "clear around something".
