Correct Answer:

carefully

Explanation:

The appropriate adverb to fill in the blank is: carefully

The sentence would read: "Sandra drove carefully over the narrow causeway."

  1. Context: The sentence describes Sandra's action of driving over a narrow causeway.

  2. Appropriate Adverb: When driving over a narrow causeway, one would likely exercise caution and care to navigate the road safely.

  3. Option Analysis:

    • Hanglitily: This is not a recognized adverb, and it doesn't convey the idea of careful driving.
    • Carefully (Correct): This adverb accurately represents the manner in which Sandra is driving over the narrow causeway.
    • Indignantly: This adverb expresses a feeling of anger or annoyance, which is not suitable in the context of driving over a causeway.
    • Profusely: This adverb relates to something done in large quantities, typically involving a flow of liquids. It doesn't fit the context of driving.
