Question

Choose the correct adverb from the options given below:
Sudha is a good dancer. She dances really ____
a) Good
b) Better
c) Best
d) Well

Answer 1

Hint: The blank will be filled by a word which is an adverb of manner, which is often placed after the sentence's object or main verb.

Complete answer:
Taking help from the hint, we proceed to find the word which will fit the blank best. Now that we know the blank is to be filled with an adverb of manner, we will go through each of the four given options and their grammatical details as well. We also must keep in mind that the verb in the sentence is dances, so the adverb has to be filled accordingly.
As we can see the option ‘a’, good is an adverb of a positive degree. But we need an adverb of manner which suffices our grammatical requirement. Hence option ‘a’ is the incorrect answer.
Option b, like the previous alternative, is the incorrect answer as ‘better’ is the comparative degree adverb of the word in option ‘a’, ‘good’.
Similarly, option c, ‘best’ is the superlative degree adverb of the word ‘good’, hence it will not fulfill the prerequisite for this question, which is an adverb of manner. Hence, this is also an incorrect alternative.
Lastly, option d, ‘well’, is the correct answer as it is an adverb of manner hence it suffices the grammatical needs of the question and fits incorrectly with the sentence as well.

Note:
If you can not recall the grammatical specifications of the options, you can use the elimination method by filling each option one by one in the blank.
